Dear All,

 

I am looking for help to build lab with Fortimanager & Fortigate as I am using permanent Free trail license. Have you ever been used trail license.

 

I tried multiple times by downloading both (Fortimanager & Fortigate) to install & reinstall of  Fortimanager & Fortigate permanent Free trail license but did not work any more as expected.

 

Anybody has performed LAB using free trail license so tell me which version. So that I can also build & learn,Grow.

 

Also want to tell you while adding with Fortigate getting error like - unable to add the device with Forti manager.

 

 

Your response would be highly appreciated.
