Fortigate Cloud Multi-Tenant/Multi-Device

Question

I’m a brand new Fortinet partner MSP and I’m trying to understand the best method for handling FG Cloud. From what I understand, the MSP needs to purchase the multi-device license instead of the individual SKUs, then purchase the multi-tenancy license and create a sub account for the client, then register the device to that clients sub account.

Am I understanding this correctly?

Hello Regaru,

Yes, as a new Fortinet partner MSP, here is the recommended method for handling FortiGate Cloud:

1. Purchase the multi-device license instead of individual SKUs to manage multiple devices efficiently.

2. Acquire the multi-tenancy license to create and manage subaccounts for your clients within FortiGate Cloud.

3. Create a subaccount for each client to segregate their devices and configurations.

4. Register each client's device to their respective subaccount for centralized management and monitoring.
