Hi AJ01,

Consider upgrading to FortiOS 7.4.7 or 7.4.8 to stay current with recent updates. This ensures you have the most up-to-date features and security patches. However, it's also important to consider compatibility with your specific lab setup and any specific requirements you might have.

Please refer to the document below recommended release for FortiOS:

Also, refer to how to install FortiGate KVM in EVE-NG:
