Question

Please contact your administrator or connect to EMS for license activation.

I recently downloaded the Forticlient VPN (7.4.2.1717) using the `FortiClientVPN_OnlineInstaller.dmg`.
I'm using a Macbook Pro - Mac Sequoia 15.2

 

And after that, I received a warn saying "Please contact your administrator or connect to EMS for license activation.".

And the Forticlient Icon App received a Lock and Key Icon at the left bottom corner.

 

What should I do to fix that to use the Forticlient without a License activation.

"FortiClient VPN" is a free version that shouldn't ask you to connect to EMS.

You probably installed "FortiClient" instead.

The public link: https://links.fortinet.com/forticlient/mac/vpnagent

In case the issue persists, login to support.fortinet.com with a valid contract.

Go to Downoad > FortiClient > 7.4.2, then you download FortiClientVPN for MacOS.
