Fortinet FortiGate 2201E SOCaaS Managed Log Monitoring Subscription, 1-Year (FC-10-F22E1-464-02-12)

Running a FortiGate 2201E at the network edge is one thing; watching its logs around the clock is another. The FC-10-F22E1-464-02-12 SKU is Fortinet’s FortiGuard SOCaaS subscription for the FortiGate 2201E, a 1-year, worldwide-licensed service that puts Fortinet’s own security operations team on the log stream instead of your internal team.

What this SKU covers

FortiGuard SOCaaS is a 24×7 cloud-based managed log monitoring, incident triage, and SOC escalation service for a single FortiGate 2201E. Fortinet analysts watch the logs generated by the appliance, triage the alerts that matter, and escalate confirmed incidents to your team with context, instead of leaving a security engineer to sift through raw event data. The FortiGate 2201E itself ships as a high-density data center firewall (four 40GE QSFP+ slots, twenty 10GE SFP+ ports, and roughly 158 Gbps of IPv4 firewall throughput per Fortinet’s published figures), so the volume of logs a SOCaaS team can be asked to watch here is real, not a token amount.

SOCaaS is billed and licensed as a standalone à la carte service, not bundled into Enterprise, UTP, or ATP protection. It depends on FortiAnalyzer Cloud (SKU FC-10-F22E1-585-02-12) for the underlying log storage and analytics; Fortinet’s own ordering guide lists SOCaaS as “SOC-as-a-service including FortiAnalyzer Cloud,” so most customers license the two together for the FortiGate 2201E.

Who needs it

This is the right SKU for a team that already has FortiGate 2201E hardware and a bundle handling the FortiGuard security services (IPS, AV, web filtering) but no internal SOC watching the box overnight, on weekends, or during a small IT team’s PTO. Managed services companies and internal security teams that want triage and escalation handled externally, rather than adding headcount, are the typical buyer. It is not a replacement for FortiGuard’s inline protection subscriptions; it is a monitoring and response layer on top of them.

Activation & delivery

FC-10-F22E1-464-02-12 is a subscription license, not a physical product. DataCenter360.ca delivers the entitlement electronically, typically within 0-1 business days, to the registered FortiGate 2201E serial number in the FortiCare portal. No shipping, customs, or hardware handling is involved, so the licensing side of this order is available to buyers anywhere in the world, even though FortiGate hardware itself only ships from DataCenter360.ca within Canada.

SOCaaS vs. running it in-house

Fortinet’s NOC/SOC service family for the FortiGate 2201E also includes Managed FortiGate Service (device setup and policy change management, SKU FC-10-F22E1-660-02-12) and FortiGate Cloud (management, analytics, log retention, SKU FC-10-F22E1-131-02-12). SOCaaS is the piece that specifically covers alert triage and escalation; it’s a narrower, more specialized service than a general managed-NOC contract, and pairing it with FortiAnalyzer Cloud gives Fortinet’s SOC the log depth it needs to make that triage accurate rather than guesswork.

Buying FC-10-F22E1-464-02-12 from DataCenter360.ca

DataCenter360.ca processes this as a standard Fortinet subscription order: confirm the FortiGate 2201E’s serial number at checkout, and the SOCaaS entitlement gets applied against it once payment clears. As a Fortinet Select Partner we can also confirm whether FortiAnalyzer Cloud is already active on the same unit before the order ships, which avoids a gap between the two services.
