Fortinet FortiWiFi 40F-3G4G SD-WAN Underlay Monitoring Service, 1-Year (FC-10-F40FI-288-02-12)

The FortiWiFi 40F-3G4G is built to use more than one path to the internet, typically a wired link plus its built-in cellular modem, but smart failover only works if the firewall knows how each link is actually performing. FC-10-F40FI-288-02-12 adds the FortiGuard SD-WAN Underlay Bandwidth and Quality Monitoring Service, measuring the real bandwidth and quality of those underlay links so SD-WAN steers traffic onto the best one. It is a one-year subscription for a single 40F-3G4G, delivered electronically, with no hardware shipped.

What the service covers

The service continuously measures the available bandwidth, latency, jitter, and loss on the device’s underlay connections, using FortiGuard infrastructure as the reference point. That live picture feeds the 40F-3G4G’s SD-WAN engine so application steering and failover decisions are based on measured conditions rather than static assumptions. On a unit that mixes a fixed line with metered LTE, knowing which path is healthy at any moment is the difference between a clean failover and a stalled connection.

Who needs it

Sites running the 40F-3G4G with two or more WAN links, especially where one of them is cellular and conditions change through the day. It suits branches that depend on voice or other latency-sensitive applications, and any deployment where the cost of choosing the wrong link is felt immediately.

Activation and delivery

The subscription registers to your FortiWiFi 40F-3G4G in the Fortinet support portal and activates electronically. Nothing ships, and the monitoring begins once the license is applied to a valid 40F-3G4G with SD-WAN configured.

Where it fits alongside other services

This service improves how the device uses its links, it does not inspect traffic or manage the box. Pair it with a FortiGuard subscription for security and, if you centralize SD-WAN through FortiManager Cloud, with the matching connector service. We can confirm what your topology needs.
