Fortinet FortiGate 1101E ATP Subscription, 1-Year (FC-10-F11E1-928-02-12)

At 12.5 Gbps of IPS throughput, the FortiGate 1101E has the headroom to run deep inspection across high-bandwidth links without bottlenecking production traffic. This 1-Year ATP Subscription (FC-10-F11E1-928-02-12) keeps those inspection engines current: it activates IPS, Advanced Malware Protection, Application Control, and FortiCare Premium on the appliance for twelve months. No hardware ships with this SKU — it is a subscription license for a 1101E already in your rack or on order separately.

What this license activates

The ATP subscription turns on four components in one renewal line:

• IPS (Intrusion Prevention System): signature and behavior-based detection against known exploits and zero-day network attacks, running at up to 12.5 Gbps on the 1101E’s NP6-accelerated data path.
• Advanced Malware Protection (AMP): antivirus plus cloud-sandbox inspection for files and payloads transiting the firewall, catching threats that static signatures alone miss.
• Application Control: policy enforcement across thousands of applications — regardless of port or protocol — so teams can see and govern what traverses the network at line rate.
• FortiCare Premium: Fortinet’s premium support tier bundled with the security services, so the threat engine and vendor support renew together as one contract.

Combined threat protection throughput with these services active is 7.1 Gbps on the 1101E, and NGFW throughput (firewall plus IPS plus Application Control) reaches 9.8 Gbps — figures from Fortinet’s FortiGate 1100E Series data sheet.

Is ATP the right tier, or should this be UTP?

ATP is suited for environments where the priority is network-layer threat prevention: data center perimeters, internal segmentation, and dedicated east-west inspection zones. If the 1101E is also handling outbound user traffic that needs URL or DNS filtering, the UTP subscription on the same appliance (FC-10-F11E1-950) adds those layers at the next tier up.

Who typically buys this

Most purchases come from operations teams managing an existing 1101E at a campus core or data center edge whose current ATP contract is approaching renewal. The 1101E’s dual NP6 processors and 2x 480 GB onboard SSDs make it a common choice for high-throughput inspection with local log storage, so keeping the threat subscription current is operationally straightforward. Teams purchasing 1101E hardware separately also use this SKU to activate the initial subscription at the time of hardware order.

Activation and delivery

This is a subscription license, not physical hardware. After purchase, DataCenter360.ca registers the contract against the 1101E’s serial number in FortiCare. The appliance picks up its updated entitlement on the next FortiGuard check-in, which typically takes minutes. Delivery is electronic and not restricted by geography — only the serial number of the registered appliance ties the license to the device.

Terms and renewal

This SKU covers a single 12-month term. If the deployment has a longer planning horizon, the 3-year and 5-year ATP subscriptions for the 1101E are available, often at a lower effective cost per year. Allowing the ATP subscription to lapse pauses IPS, AMP, and Application Control signature updates and ends FortiCare Premium entitlement; the 1101E continues to route traffic but loses live threat-intelligence updates until the next renewal.

Buying from DataCenter360.ca

DataCenter360.ca carries the full 1101E subscription range as individual line items, so you can match the license to the actual traffic profile without overpaying for filtering layers the deployment does not need. If you are evaluating whether ATP or UTP fits your 1101E environment, or want a multi-year quote to compare effective annual cost across terms, our team can pull that detail before you commit.
