Fortinet FortiGate 100F Managed FortiGate Service, 1-Year (FC-10-F100F-660-02-12)

Running a FortiGate 100F without a dedicated network engineer is a real challenge. Policy changes, firmware updates, and security incident response all require deep FortiOS expertise. FC-10-F100F-660-02-12 fills that gap with Fortinet’s own NOC team. For one year, Fortinet experts handle the day-to-day management of your FortiGate 100F — device setup through commissioning, ongoing network and policy change management, and 24×7 monitoring — while you retain visibility through the reporting dashboard.

What the Managed FortiGate Service Covers

The Managed FortiGate service (service code 660) connects your FortiGate 100F to Fortinet’s Network Operations Center. The scope includes initial device setup and onboarding, configuration of network policies and routing, ongoing policy change management submitted via service request, proactive monitoring of device health and availability, and change notifications and reporting. The NOC team uses FortiManager and FortiAnalyzer Cloud infrastructure to manage and monitor the unit, so no additional tools are required on your side.

Who Uses This Service

Mid-sized businesses running the FortiGate 100F as their perimeter firewall are the primary buyers. Organizations with an IT team focused on applications and end-user support, rather than network security, use the Managed FortiGate service to keep the 100F correctly configured without hiring a dedicated network engineer. It also suits organizations in regulated industries that need documented change management for firewall rules but cannot staff a security operations function internally.

Activation and Delivery

FC-10-F100F-660-02-12 is an electronic subscription delivered worldwide. DataCenter360.ca sends the license entitlement within 0-1 business days of your order. After activation through the Fortinet Support Portal, Fortinet’s onboarding team initiates contact to begin the device commissioning process. The FortiGate 100F itself ships separately if purchased as hardware; this SKU is the management service only.

Managed Service vs. Self-Managed with a Bundle

The Managed FortiGate service and a FortiGuard security bundle (UTP, ATP, or Enterprise) are complementary, not competing. The bundle activates threat intelligence features on the 100F; the Managed FortiGate service provides the human operational layer to configure and maintain those features correctly. Some organizations pair the two: the bundle for threat prevention capabilities, and the 660 service for expert management. Others self-manage with the bundle and add the 660 service later when internal capacity becomes a constraint.
