Hello,

Please I need someone to help.
I'm trying to activate trial licence in VM Fortimanager 2.7.1, installed in VMworkstation, but I can't do it.
I wanted to configure the static route, after rule to access Internet, and after try to launch the licence activation from fortimanager.
But I don't see how I can configure static route and rule to access internet in fortimanager with cli.
So I would like to know if you can show me the method to help to activate a trial licence.

Thank you

Fortimanager

Note FMG is not supported in VMWare Workstation (ESXi only). It should still work though.

These docs should help:

Hello,

You may consider to configure static route in CLI:

config system route
edit <number>
set device <interface>
set gateway <IP address>
next
end

VMworkstation is not officially supported supervisor.
