Fortinet FortiAnalyzer VM (1-11 GB/Day) FortiCare Elite, 1-Year (FC2-10-LV0VM-285-02-12)

Where a six-gigabyte daily ceiling starts to feel tight, the FC2 tier raises the FortiAnalyzer VM’s log ingestion capacity to 11 GB per day. This 1-year FortiCare Elite subscription covers that expanded capacity at Fortinet’s highest support level, giving mid-sized teams a single annual cycle to validate fit before committing to a longer term.

Overview

FortiAnalyzer VM consolidates logs, forensic data, and compliance reports from across a Fortinet environment into one searchable, auditable platform running on VMware ESXi, Hyper-V, KVM, and other supported hypervisors. The FC2 log tier sets the daily ingestion ceiling at 11 gigabytes, which accommodates environments running between five and fifteen Fortinet devices, including combinations of FortiGate firewalls, FortiSwitch units, and FortiAP access points generating moderate to high event volumes.

FortiCare Elite (service code 285) attaches Fortinet’s premium support to that capacity: 24×7 TAC access by phone and web portal, priority case queuing, all software updates and major version upgrades, and advanced RMA service. The license is electronic and activates worldwide without requiring physical shipment.

Who it suits

Mid-sized IT teams and regional offices that have outgrown the FC1 log tier are the primary audience for FC2. Networks generating between 6 and 11 gigabytes of log data daily will find this tier provides the headroom needed without oversizing the subscription.

Organizations piloting FortiAnalyzer VM at scale, or validating real log volumes before committing to a multi-year purchase, will find the 1-year term appropriate. It provides enough time to gather genuine usage data and confirm whether the FC2 ceiling fits the environment before a 3-year or 5-year commitment is made.
