Product description

Running a FortiGate 80F-DSL with FortiCare Premium active on it? This 3-year subscription (FC-10-F80FD-204-02-36) upgrades that coverage to the Elite tier, adding the 15-minute critical-issue response SLA, a dedicated Technical Account Manager (TAM), the FortiCare Elite monitoring portal, and extended long-term software support. It layers on top of your existing Premium contract for the 3-year duration; it does not replace it.

What FortiCare Elite Adds Over Premium

Premium already covers 24×7 telephone support and 1-hour critical-issue response for the FortiGate 80F-DSL. The Elite upgrade tightens that response window to 15 minutes and assigns a named TAM who knows your configuration. The Elite monitoring portal lets Fortinet watch appliance health proactively, and extended LTS firmware support means your device continues receiving patches well past the standard end-of-engineering-support date for the 80F series.

Critical-issue initial response 4 hours 1 hour 15 minutes
24×7 telephone support
Next-business-day hardware replacement
Priority RMA add-on eligible

Extended LTS support & Elite monitoring portal

Who Buys This Upgrade

DSL-connected branch offices where the FortiGate 80F-DSL is the only WAN path are prime candidates. If that link goes down and support takes an hour to respond, operations stop. Managed service providers running the 80F-DSL for healthcare or financial clients often need Elite SLAs contractually, and this upgrade lets them deliver that without sourcing a separate hardware maintenance agreement. The 3-year term is worth considering if your Premium contract still has time left: co-term the end dates so both contracts expire together.

Activation and Delivery

FC-10-F80FD-204-02-36 is an electronic subscription. After your order clears, DataCenter360.ca sends the license key by email, typically within the same business day. You register it in the FortiCare support portal against your FortiGate 80F-DSL serial number. FortiCare Premium must be active on that unit before the Elite key can be applied. If you are unsure whether your current Premium subscription is current, check the registration details in the FortiCare portal before ordering.

One Upgrade vs. the Full Bundle

FortiGuard subscription bundles for the 80F-DSL (UTP, ATP, Enterprise) include FortiCare Premium but not Elite. If you are running a bundle and want the Elite tier on top, this upgrade covers the delta. For a new deployment, consider pairing a hardware bundle that includes Premium with this upgrade so Elite coverage starts from day one. The FortiCloud add-on (FC-10-F80FD-131-02-36) pairs naturally with Elite: your TAM can reference cloud log data when working a support case.

Buying from DataCenter360.ca

DataCenter360.ca is a Fortinet Select Partner with the full FortiGate 80F-DSL service catalog in stock at all term lengths, including this Elite upgrade. If you need help matching this upgrade to an expiring Premium contract or confirming the right SKU for your unit, contact us before you order. Licenses are delivered electronically worldwide on the same business day in most cases.

Does FC-10-F80FD-204-02-36 require FortiCare Premium to already be active?
Yes. This is an upgrade from FortiCare Premium to Elite, not a standalone subscription. Your FortiGate 80F-DSL must have an active FortiCare Premium contract before you apply this Elite upgrade key. If Premium has lapsed, renew it first.
What does the 15-minute critical response SLA mean in practice?
For severity-1 (system-down) issues, Fortinet Elite support commits to an initial engineer response within 15 minutes, any time of day. Premium commits to 1 hour for the same severity. Your named TAM can also be contacted directly, bypassing the general queue for faster escalation.
Can I buy a 1-year or 5-year version of this upgrade?
Yes. FC-10-F80FD-204-02-12 covers 1 year and FC-10-F80FD-204-02-60 covers 5 years. The 3-year listing here offers a lower per-year cost than annual renewals while keeping more flexibility than a 5-year commitment.
Is this subscription available for delivery worldwide?
Yes. Fortinet subscription licenses have no geographic restriction. FC-10-F80FD-204-02-36 is delivered electronically by email to customers in any country, typically the same business day. DataCenter360.ca processes all orders through Fortinet’s authorized partner channel.
Does FortiCare Elite affect my hardware warranty on the FortiGate 80F-DSL?
Elite includes all the hardware replacement coverage of Premium (next-business-day RMA for hardware defects), plus eligibility for the Priority RMA add-on if same-day advance replacement is needed. The integrated DSL module is covered as part of the unit chassis.
