Fortinet FortiGate 201F FortiConverter Service, 1-Year (FC-10-F201F-189-02-12)

Policy migration is consistently the most time-consuming part of a firewall replacement project. FortiConverter eliminates much of that manual work by automatically converting your existing vendor configuration into a FortiGate-ready format, so the FortiGate 201F can be populated with accurate policies from day one rather than built from scratch.

What FortiConverter Covers

FC-10-F201F-189-02-12 is a 1-year FortiConverter license tied to the FortiGate 201F. It provides cloud-assisted conversion of firewall configurations from third-party platforms into FortiOS format. The conversion covers access policies, NAT rules, address objects, service objects, and security profiles where source-platform equivalents exist. The output is reviewed by the administrator and imported directly into the FortiGate 201F, substantially reducing migration time and reducing the risk of policy gaps.

Who Needs This

Any organization replacing a Cisco ASA, Check Point, Palo Alto Networks, Juniper, or SonicWall appliance with a FortiGate 201F benefits from FortiConverter. It is most valuable in deployments with large policy sets, hundreds of address objects, or complex NAT configurations where manual re-entry would take days and introduce transcription errors.

Security architects leading a mid-enterprise migration, network engineers standardizing on FortiGate across multiple branches, and MSPs migrating client infrastructure to Fortinet Security Fabric all use FortiConverter to accelerate project timelines.

Activation and Delivery

FortiConverter is an electronic service. After purchase, DataCenter360.ca delivers the activation key within 0-1 business days. Register the key at support.fortinet.com, linked to the FortiGate 201F’s serial number. Access to the FortiConverter tool is then available via Fortinet’s portal. No hardware shipment is involved.

FortiConverter vs. Full Subscription Bundles

FortiConverter (189) is an à-la-carte service used once during a migration project. It is not included in FortiGuard subscription bundles (UTP, ATP, or Enterprise). After migration is complete, most customers then activate a FortiGuard bundle (UTP FC-10-F201F-950-02-xx or Enterprise FC-10-F201F-809-02-xx) for ongoing security service coverage. DataCenter360.ca can supply both FortiConverter and the appropriate subscription bundle, making it straightforward to complete the migration and immediately arm the 201F with full threat protection.
