United States (US) Authorized DistributorA three-year FortiCare Essential contract aligns the FortiGate 80F-DSL to a standard IT planning cycle. FC-10-F80FD-314-02-36 provides three years of firmware update entitlement, business-hours web support, and return-and-replace hardware coverage for a single registered 80F-DSL. Subscription license only, electronic delivery, valid worldwide.
Essential entitles the registered unit to FortiOS firmware releases and security patches for the duration of the contract. Web-based technical support is available through the FortiCare portal during business hours, along with the online knowledge base and case tools. If the hardware fails, the return-and-replace RMA process provides a replacement unit after the faulty device is returned. Critical issues receive a next-business-day initial response. Telephone support, 24×7 coverage, and advance hardware replacement are not included at this tier.
FortiCare has three service levels. This contract is the Essential tier. The table below shows the comparison so you can confirm it matches the site’s requirements.
| Feature | Essential | Premium | Elite |
|---|---|---|---|
| Critical-issue response | Next business day | 1 hour | 15 minutes |
| Telephone support | — | ✓ | ✓ |
| Hardware RMA | Return & replace | Advanced replacement | Advanced replacement |
| Priority RMA add-on eligible | — | ✓ | ✓ |
| Firmware updates, online tools & asset portal | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ |
| Extended LTS support & Elite monitoring portal | — | — | ✓ |
Three-year Essential is the standard choice for FortiGate deployments that follow a typical hardware refresh cycle. It lines up naturally with a hardware purchase, keeping support current through the primary service life without a five-year financial commitment. The 80F-DSL is common at remote offices with DSL-only connectivity; Essential keeps those units patched and eligible for RMA without requiring a premium support tier for a secondary site that can absorb a next-business-day response time.
Delivery is electronic, typically within zero to one business days, to any country. You receive a contract registration number to enter against the FortiGate 80F-DSL serial number in the FortiCare portal. Coverage starts immediately on registration. Nothing ships physically.
Three options for this device. Essential (this contract) covers support and firmware at the entry level. FortiCare Premium (FC-10-F80FD-247-02-36) adds telephone support, 1-hour critical response, and advance hardware replacement for the 3-year term. If FortiGuard security subscriptions are also needed, a UTP or Enterprise bundle packages those with FortiCare Premium in one SKU. Choose based on site criticality and whether security services are already purchased as part of an initial hardware bundle.
DataCenter360.ca carries all three FortiCare Essential terms for the 80F-DSL as an authorized Fortinet Select Partner. Three-year contracts are typically processed the same business day and issued electronically worldwide. Provide the device serial number at order to ensure the contract is registered against the correct unit without delay.
Firmware and security patch entitlement for the registered unit, business-hours web support through the FortiCare portal and knowledge base, and return-and-replace hardware RMA. Critical-issue initial response is next business day.
Essential gives next-business-day web support and return-and-replace RMA. Premium (FC-10-F80FD-247-02-36) adds telephone access, 1-hour critical response, and advance hardware replacement. For branch DSL sites with less critical traffic, Essential is usually sufficient.
Yes. FortiCare licenses are delivered electronically to any country. Only physical FortiGate hardware is Canada-only.
No. This contract is support coverage only. FortiGuard threat feeds, IPS signatures, web filter databases, and other active security subscriptions are included in UTP or Enterprise bundles, not in standalone FortiCare contracts.
There is no mid-term upgrade path for an existing contract. You can purchase a FortiCare Premium contract for the remaining or next period; the Essential contract runs until expiry. DataCenter360.ca can advise on the best approach at renewal.
