Good Afternoon Colleagues

I hope you are doing well . When trying to validated the license for FortiNet on FortiGuard , It takes long time and give message in snapshot 2. However when log to FortiCloud , The license has 56 days to expire.

 

So kindly advice whether it has been activated/validated or not ? If not , What should be done to activate/validate it?

 

Best Regards
