Fortinet FortiWiFi 60E-DSL FortiGate Cloud Management, 1-Year (FC-10-FW60F-131-02-12)

Managing one branch firewall from a browser, with a year of history to look back on, beats SSHing into the box every time a question comes up. The 1-Year FortiGate Cloud subscription for the FortiWiFi 60E-DSL (FC-10-FW60F-131-02-12) provides that: cloud-based management, analytics, and twelve months of log retention for a single FWF-60E-DSL, reached from Fortinet’s hosted portal. It is a subscription registered to one device, delivered electronically, with nothing to ship.

What this service covers

FortiGate Cloud puts the FortiWiFi 60E-DSL under remote management and reporting for the term:

• Cloud management: configuration and oversight of the device through a browser, without needing to be on the local network.
• Analytics and reporting: traffic and security dashboards plus scheduled reports drawn from the device’s activity.
• One year of log retention: the firewall’s logs are kept in the cloud for twelve months, longer than the box itself holds.
• Remote visibility: a single pane to check status and pull reports for a remote 60E-DSL without a site visit.

Who needs it

This suits an organization running a FortiWiFi 60E-DSL at a site you manage remotely, where browser-based access and retained history are more practical than local-only tools. If you already run FortiManager or FortiAnalyzer for centralized control, that may cover the need; for a standalone branch unit, FortiGate Cloud is the lightweight way to manage and report on it.

Activation and delivery

The subscription is issued electronically and registered to one FortiWiFi 60E-DSL by serial number. Once active, the device connects to FortiGate Cloud and management, analytics, and log retention run for twelve months. Nothing ships.

Where this fits, and a note on the platform

FortiGate Cloud is a management and reporting service, separate from the FortiGuard protection bundles that defend the device. For deeper, longer-term analytics many sites add FortiAnalyzer Cloud (FC-10-FW60F-585-02-12), and when they want Fortinet to operate the device rather than just see it, Managed FortiGate (FC-10-FW60F-660-02-12) is the step up. The FortiWiFi 60E-DSL is a previous-generation platform; this license keeps an installed unit centrally managed while you plan an eventual move to the FortiWiFi 70G line.
