Question

Automatic Upgrade FortiClient EMS is enabled by default?

Hi,

 

I need to ask regarding default configuration for FortiClient EMS. In FortiClient EMS 7.2.12 did the “Let EMS schedule automatic upgrade” option under menu System Settings > EMS Settings is enabled by default?
I don’t think that I explicitly enabled this option, but I received notification EMS upgrade is available and the scheduled upgrade also has been set.

From the following documentation, there is no information that automatic upgrade option is enabled by default.

The EMS have active license and we can disable the automatic upgrade option.
But, we don’t know if this option is enabled by default.
