Fortinet FortiGate 2600F Managed FortiGate Service 24×7 Subscription, 5-Year (FC-10-F26HF-660-02-60)

A FortiGate 2600F handling data-center or campus-core traffic is not a device most IT teams want to leave on autopilot, and it is not one they want to hand-tune alone either. FC-10-F26HF-660-02-60 puts Fortinet’s own Network Operations Center behind the 2600F for five years: NOC engineers handle setup, ongoing policy changes, and round-the-clock health monitoring, while your team keeps visibility into everything they do.

What the Managed FortiGate Service Covers

Service code 660 connects the FortiGate 2600F to Fortinet’s NOC over the full five-year term. Scope includes initial device setup and commissioning, configuration of network policies and routing, ongoing policy change management submitted through service requests, proactive monitoring of device health and availability, and change notifications with reporting. The NOC operates through FortiManager and FortiAnalyzer Cloud infrastructure, so no extra management tooling is required on your side, and a five-year term locks in a single management relationship instead of renewing a shorter contract multiple times over the appliance’s service life.

Who Runs a 2600F This Way

The FortiGate 2600F sits at data-center and large-campus core, where change control and uptime carry real weight. Organizations that buy this service typically have IT staff focused on applications, servers, or end-user support rather than dedicated firewall engineering, or a security team stretched thin across more devices than it can hand-manage. Enterprises with audit or compliance requirements around documented firewall change history also lean on the 660 service, since every policy change moves through the NOC’s request and approval workflow rather than an ad-hoc console edit.

Activation and Delivery

FC-10-F26HF-660-02-60 is an electronic subscription delivered worldwide with no shipping involved. DataCenter360.ca issues the license entitlement within 0-1 business days of order. Once activated through the Fortinet Support Portal, Fortinet’s onboarding team reaches out to begin commissioning the FortiGate 2600F. The appliance itself, if not already owned, is purchased separately; this SKU is the management service only.

Managed Service vs. a Self-Managed FortiGuard Bundle

This service and a FortiGuard subscription bundle (UTP or Enterprise on the 2600F) solve different problems and pair well together. The bundle turns on the threat intelligence features: IPS, antivirus, web filtering, sandboxing, and more. The 660 service supplies the people who configure and maintain those features correctly over time. Some customers running the 2600F carry both: a bundle for the security engine, the NOC service for expert hands. Others start self-managed and add the 660 service later once internal capacity to babysit a core firewall runs thin.
