Question

Fortiagte 100f - manual import ids and av signature

I bought a used 100F on ebay few months ago. It was running FOS v7.0.10M and yesterday i managed to upgrade to v7.6.3F After upgrade, i performed factory reset, it means all ips/av signature reset to OOB. I then downloaded ips, av signatures along with some others packages (i have another subscription) and all were upgraded. Is this normal, I known that it's not compliant with entitlement but i used for home only and this guy perfect fit to my requirements.

Do i have any issues with this?

Hi ,

 

in the FortiGate device without a valid subscription for updates like IPS and AV signatures is not compliant with Fortinet's licensing agreements.
plz check below point 
++++++++++++++++++++
Licensing part should be valid 
While you may be able to manually update signatures, without a valid subscription, you won't receive automatic updates, which could leave your network vulnerable to new threats.
if don't have license part then purchase the a valid subscription
