United States (US) Authorized DistributorSometimes you need Elite-level support coverage for an evaluation period, a specific project phase, or a fiscal year where the budget covers only annual commitments. The FC-10-F80FP-204-02-12 upgrades an existing FortiCare Premium contract on the FortiGate 80F-POE to Elite for 12 months. You get the 1-hour P1 critical-issue response, the Elite monitoring portal, and extended LTS firmware access, then decide at renewal whether to continue at Elite or drop back to Premium. It is the lowest-risk way to test what Elite actually changes for your environment.
Service code 204 is an upgrade layer that sits on top of an active FortiCare Premium subscription. Applying this 1-year version to the FortiGate 80F-POE serial changes the support tier to Elite for the next 12 months. The differences from Premium:
This product activates the Elite tier on the FortiGate 80F-POE for one year:
| Feature | Essential | Premium | Elite |
|---|---|---|---|
| Critical issue (P1) response | — | 4-hour | 1-hour |
| 24/7 phone & web support | — | ✓ | ✓ |
| Hardware RMA type | Next business day | Next business day | Next business day |
| Priority RMA add-on eligible | — | ✓ | Built-in |
| Firmware, tools & customer portal | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ |
| Extended LTS support & Elite monitoring portal | — | — | ✓ |
The 1-year term works well for organizations that need Elite coverage for a defined period: a compliance audit window, a proof-of-concept, or a year where a contract requires documented 1-hour response times. It is also the right choice if you are evaluating whether the upgrade cost is justified before committing to 3 or 5 years. MSPs managing client environments under time-limited SLA agreements may find the annual version easier to line up with client contract terms.
FC-10-F80FP-204-02-12 is an electronic license. After order processing — 0 to 1 business days — the registration code arrives by email. You apply it at support.fortinet.com against the FortiGate 80F-POE serial number. FortiCare Premium must be active on the same serial before activating this upgrade. No physical shipment, no minimum firmware version requirement. The 12-month term begins on the activation date, not the order date.
FortiCare Elite addresses support response time, hardware RMA, and the Elite portal. It does not include FortiGuard security subscriptions. For a device that needs both an Elite SLA and FortiGuard coverage, the practical path is an Enterprise bundle (FC-10-F80FP-809-02-12) for the security stack and Premium support, then this upgrade layered on top for the 1-hour SLA. If the 1-hour response is the sole requirement and FortiGuard is already covered separately, this single upgrade is the most targeted option.
