Fortinet FortiManager 1000G Secure RMA Service, 3-Year (FC-10-FM1KG-301-02-36)

A FortiManager 1000G deployed at the center of a large network management stack is a long-term infrastructure investment. FC-10-FM1KG-301-02-36 matches that investment horizon with three years of Secure RMA coverage, ensuring that any hardware replacement during the term is handled under documented drive-erasure procedures. Consolidating three annual renewal decisions into one transaction simplifies procurement and removes the risk of an accidental coverage lapse at renewal time.

Overview

Secure RMA (service code 301) is an add-on to an active FortiCare support plan that governs how replacement hardware is prepared and how returned units are processed. For the FortiManager 1000G, which may hold configurations spanning thousands of managed Fortinet devices, the risk of data remnants on a returned appliance is material. The 3-Year term maintains uninterrupted Secure RMA protection across the full coverage window without requiring annual re-engagement with procurement or your Fortinet partner.

Who it suits

Multi-year terms are a common requirement in regulated sectors with 3-year audit or certification cycles, including financial services, healthcare systems, and government agencies operating under frameworks such as FedRAMP or ISO 27001. Service providers managing infrastructure on behalf of multiple clients also find the 3-Year term practical, as it keeps the FortiManager’s service envelope stable across the managed-services contract lifecycle without triggering a mid-contract renewal event.
