Fortinet FortiGate 1800F-DC ATP Subscription, 1-Year (FC-10-D18HF-928-02-12)

The FortiGate 1800F-DC runs on dual -48V to -60V DC power supplies instead of AC, which is why it lands in central-office racks and telco cabinets where DC power is the standard. This SKU, FC-10-D18HF-928-02-12, is the 1-year Advanced Threat Protection (ATP) subscription for that appliance: a license only, no hardware included, layering IPS, anti-malware, and FortiCare Premium support onto a 1800F-DC you already have racked.

What the subscription turns on

One year of ATP activates the core threat-blocking services on a FortiGate 1800F-DC, backed by FortiCare Premium support for the whole term:

• Intrusion prevention (IPS) that blocks network-level exploits, malicious URLs, and botnet command-and-control traffic
• Anti-malware protection: antivirus, botnet domain blocking, mobile malware detection, virus outbreak protection, content disarm and reconstruct, AI-based heuristic AV, and FortiGate Cloud Sandbox
• FortiCare Premium: 24x7x365 support, a one-hour response window for critical issues, next-business-day for everything else, and firmware access through the term

What is the ATP bundle?

Advanced Threat Protection is Fortinet’s entry-level FortiGuard bundle, the tier below UTP and Enterprise Protection. It covers IPS and anti-malware, the two services most directly tied to stopping an active attack, but it leaves out URL/DNS/video filtering, anti-spam, DLP, and attack surface monitoring, all of which UTP or Enterprise add. The table below shows how the three tiers stack up on a 1800F-DC:

Who buys this

This subscription usually goes to three kinds of buyers: a network team activating a newly deployed 1800F-DC for the first time, an existing customer renewing before their ATP term runs out, and anyone who bought the DC-power chassis hardware separately and now needs the services turned on. Given the 1800F-DC’s 22 Gbps IPS throughput, it’s typically sitting at the perimeter or data-center core of a mid-to-large network, so a protection gap here is not a minor issue. If URL filtering, anti-spam, or DLP are also on the requirements list, the table above shows exactly what stepping up to UTP or Enterprise adds.

Activation and delivery

The license is issued electronically and registered to the specific FortiGate 1800F-DC by serial number, so nothing ships physically. Once applied, the appliance pulls FortiGuard threat updates for the full 12-month term. A valid, already-purchased 1800F-DC is required to activate it.

Terms and renewal

ATP for the 1800F-DC is available in one-, three-, and five-year terms, so longer commitments are an option if you’d rather not renew annually. At renewal time, moving up to UTP or Enterprise is straightforward if the deployment’s needs have grown since the last purchase.
