Fortinet FortiGate 2600F FortiConverter Service, 1-Year (FC-10-F26HF-189-02-12)

Retiring a Palo Alto, Check Point, Cisco, or other third-party firewall in favor of a FortiGate 2600F is a big project, and the policy set on the old box rarely translates cleanly by hand. FC-10-F26HF-189-02-12 is the FortiConverter Service credit for the FortiGate 2600F: a one-time, cloud-based migration that reads the legacy configuration and builds a FortiOS-ready policy set, so a data-center-scale rule base doesn’t have to be re-typed line by line.

What the Service Does

FortiConverter Service ingests a configuration export from the source firewall and converts address objects, firewall policies, NAT rules, and static routes into FortiOS syntax for import into the FortiGate 2600F. Fortinet’s conversion engineers validate the output and deliver a summary report flagging anything that needs manual review before cutover. Everything runs through the FortiConverter cloud portal; no software is installed on the FortiGate 2600F itself.

Who Needs This

This license fits organizations swapping a competing NGFW for a FortiGate 2600F, or consolidating older FortiGate chassis onto the 2600F platform. High-end firewalls like the 2600F typically carry thousands of policy objects across multiple VDOMs, which is exactly where a manual re-entry project introduces the most risk. FortiConverter Service is scoped as a one-time migration add-on rather than a recurring subscription.

Activation and Delivery

FC-10-F26HF-189-02-12 is a 1-year entitlement tied to the FortiGate 2600F serial number, delivered electronically to any country. There’s no hardware in the box: DataCenter360.ca processes the order and the FortiConverter portal access follows the same business day.

One Service vs. the Full Bundle

FortiConverter is a migration tool, not a FortiGuard security subscription, so it sits outside the UTP and Enterprise bundle matrix for the FortiGate 2600F. Most customers pair it with an ongoing UTP or Enterprise subscription: FortiConverter gets the policy set onto the new firewall, and the bundle keeps IPS, web filtering, and threat intelligence current from day one.
