Setup
This section explains how to:
• log in to the portal web site
• navigate within the portal web site
• properly set up the service
• connect a device to the service.
This section also explains how to register a purchased contract after a trial
contract has expired or if you have purchased the contract from your sales
representative without a trial. You must configure both the portal web site and the
devices you want associated with the service before you can use the service.
If you are connecting to the portal web site for the first time, you must register your
device or devices on the Fortinet Technical Support web site. You must also
create a trial contract, which is available on the portal web site, if you have not
already purchased a contract from your sales representative.
After setting up the service, you can configure additional devices to connect to the
service. You do not need to configure other Service Account IDs or additional
contracts. You only need to:
• add device serial numbers to the portal web site and authorize the device to
use the service
• configure your devices within their own web-based manager to use the Service
Account ID.
This section includes the following topics:
• About the portal web site
• Obtaining a trial contract
• Configuring a device to use the service
• Expanding or renewing service
• Required port numbers
About the portal web site
The service is provided to devices through the Internet, and managed through a
portal web site. The portal web site displays not only customer login fields, but
also a link that enables you to configure a trial contract. There is also a bulleted
list of the key features and benefits of the service. You can view the site from
