FortiGate-80F EMS Cloud FabricConnectors

When I try to connect FortiGate-80F and FortiClientEMSCloud (trial) with FabricConnectors
I get a message "requires FortiClient EMS Cloud entitlement" and cannot select it.
Is it possible to connect with some settings? Do I have to purchase a license?
Please let me know if you know anything about this.

Hi @sorayy,

 

Yes, you need to purchase a license in order to use FortiClient EMS Cloud.

Hi sorayy,
have you registered the trail license in your Fortinet account and is the trail license still valid? The Fortigate must also be in the account, otherwise you will not be able to connect.

Best regards

Hi,

Your Forticlient EMS cloud trial license should be registered on the same Forticloud account where your Fortigate was registered.

 

Also, you may check if your trial EMS Cloud entitlement is still valid, see below sample.
