Fortinet FortiGate 31G UTP Subscription, 3-Year (FC-10-GT31G-950-02-36)

Three years is the most common subscription term for branch and office firewalls — long enough to reduce per-year cost and renewal frequency, short enough to stay within a typical hardware refresh window. The FC-10-GT31G-950-02-36 gives the FortiGate 31G a full three-year UTP stack: IPS, AV, web filtering, antispam, sandbox, and FortiCare Premium, delivered electronically with no shipping delays.

What the UTP Subscription Activates

The Unified Threat Protection (UTP) subscription covers:

• FortiCare Premium — 24/7 TAC support, firmware access, and Next-Day Hardware Replacement
• IPS — intrusion prevention using Fortinet’s continuously updated threat intelligence
• Advanced Malware Protection (AV) — signature, heuristic, and AI-powered file analysis
• Application Control — identify and control thousands of applications including evasive traffic
• URL, DNS, and Video Filtering — block known-bad sites and enforce acceptable-use policies
• Anti-Spam Service — email-borne threat filtering
• Industrial Security Service — OT/ICS protocol detection for mixed-network environments
• FortiSandbox Cloud — behavioral analysis of unknown files in a cloud sandbox environment

What Is the UTP Bundle?

UTP sits in the middle of Fortinet’s three FortiGuard bundle tiers. It adds web and email filtering and cloud sandbox on top of the base ATP tier, covering the most common attack vectors a connected office faces. Enterprise extends UTP with DLP, CASB, and IoT Detection for environments that have strict compliance requirements around data governance or cloud application visibility.

Who Buys This

The FC-10-GT31G-950-02-36 is the right choice for FortiGate 31G owners who want to maintain active FortiGuard services through their current hardware cycle without committing to a 5-year term, or those whose IT budgets are planned in 3-year windows. MSPs deploying the 31G for SMB clients frequently use 3-year subscriptions to align with contract lengths while avoiding annual renewal overhead.

Activation and Delivery

This license delivers electronically — no hardware, no physical shipment. Order confirmation triggers delivery of an activation key within one business day. You register the key at support.fortinet.com, linking it to your 31G serial number. The license activates immediately upon registration, and the service start date is recorded in the Fortinet Support portal.

Terms and Renewal

A 1-year UTP subscription (FC-10-GT31G-950-02-12) and a 5-year version (FC-10-GT31G-950-02-60) round out the UTP options for the 31G. For environments requiring DLP or CASB, the Enterprise 3-year (FC-10-GT31G-809-02-36) provides the same term with the full service set. Renewals purchased before the current subscription expires are co-termed to avoid any gap in coverage.
