Fortinet FortiGate 2600F Managed FortiGate Service 24×7 Subscription, 1-Year (FC-10-F26HF-660-02-12)

A FortiGate 2600F running at the network core carries too much traffic to leave policy changes to whoever is free that week. FC-10-F26HF-660-02-12 puts Fortinet’s own NOC in charge of that firewall for one year: they commission it, execute change requests, and watch its health around the clock, so your team gets the throughput without owning the day-to-day operations.

What the Managed FortiGate Service Covers

Service code 660 hands FortiGate 2600F management to Fortinet’s NOC for a 12-month term. That includes initial device commissioning, network and routing policy configuration, policy change management handled as submitted service requests, continuous device health and availability monitoring, and change reporting sent back to your team. The NOC operates through FortiManager and FortiAnalyzer Cloud, so nothing new needs to be deployed on your side to get this coverage running. A 1-year term suits teams evaluating managed operations for the first time or working annual renewal cycles into their budgeting, rather than committing to a multi-year contract up front.

Who Runs a 2600F This Way

This service tends to land on 2600F deployments where the security team is thin relative to the number of devices they’re responsible for, or where the firewall belongs to an IT group that doesn’t want to build in-house firewall engineering expertise. It also fits organizations that need every policy edit traceable for audit purposes: NOC-managed changes flow through a request workflow rather than an ad-hoc console login, so the record exists without extra process on your end. A 1-year term is common for a pilot engagement before locking in a longer commitment once the arrangement proves out.

Activation and Delivery

FC-10-F26HF-660-02-12 is an electronic subscription rather than a shipped item, and DataCenter360.ca issues the entitlement within 0-1 business days of order. After activation in the Fortinet Support Portal, Fortinet’s onboarding team schedules the initial commissioning call for the 2600F. The appliance is purchased separately; this SKU covers management only, for a 2600F you already own or are ordering alongside it.

Managed Service vs. a Self-Managed FortiGuard Bundle

The 660 service and a FortiGuard bundle (UTP or Enterprise on the 2600F) cover different layers, and most deployments run both. The bundle turns on the security engines themselves: IPS, antivirus, web filtering, sandboxing. The 660 service supplies the people who configure those engines and keep the rule set current as the network changes. A team with firewall expertise in house may only need the bundle; a stretched team adds NOC management so those engines get tuned and kept current instead of left on default settings.

Buying from DataCenter360.ca

DataCenter360.ca is a Fortinet Select Partner delivering license entitlements electronically worldwide, this NOC service included, wherever the 2600F is deployed. FC-10-F26HF-660-02-12 is in stock and ready to activate. If you’re also buying 2600F hardware or a FortiGuard bundle, reach out for a combined quote instead of checking each item out separately.
