Fortinet FortiGate 1801F-DC Managed FortiGate Service (NOC), 5-Year (FC-10-D18F1-660-02-60)

Running a FortiGate 1801F-DC at this scale usually means a NOC team is already stretched across other priorities. The FortiGate 1801F-DC Managed FortiGate Service, 5-Year (FC-10-D18F1-660-02-60) hands day-to-day device operation to Fortinet’s own NOC engineers: 24×7 setup, network changes, and policy management on the appliance, for the full five-year term. It is a subscription only, no hardware included, delivered electronically to any country.

What this service covers

Managed FortiGate Service puts Fortinet NOC experts directly on the operational side of the 1801F-DC:

• 24×7 device setup and configuration: Fortinet’s NOC team handles initial provisioning and ongoing configuration work on the appliance around the clock.
• Network and policy change management: firewall policy edits, routing adjustments, and network changes are executed by Fortinet engineers rather than an in-house admin.
• FortiGate Cloud Management, Analysis, and 1-Year Log Retention: the service bundles FortiGate Cloud so the NOC team and your own staff share the same management and analytics layer, with a full year of log history retained.

Because a NOC engineer is doing the hands-on work, this service is an operations layer, not a security-content subscription. It does not replace IPS, antivirus, web filtering, or FortiCare hardware support.

Who runs a FortiGate 1801F-DC with managed NOC operations

This fits organizations running the 1801F-DC as a data-center or campus-core firewall without a large in-house Fortinet operations team, or where 24×7 change coverage is needed but building an internal NOC rotation is not practical. It also suits managed service providers and IT teams already stretched thin who want Fortinet’s own engineers making changes on the box directly, on a five-year commitment that avoids repeat renewal cycles.

One service vs. the bundle

Managed FortiGate Service is an à la carte NOC/SOC offering and is not bundled into the ATP, UTP, or Enterprise subscription tiers for the FortiGate 1801F-DC; it is purchased on its own, alongside whichever FortiGuard security bundle already protects the device. If the 1801F-DC does not yet have IPS, anti-malware, and web/DNS filtering active, the UTP or Enterprise subscription for this model covers that separately from operational management.

Activation and delivery

The service is issued electronically and tied to a specific FortiGate 1801F-DC by serial number. Once activated, Fortinet’s NOC team can begin managing the device through FortiGate Cloud for the full five-year term. Nothing physical ships; a valid 1801F-DC appliance is required before activation.
