Description This article describes how is the Proxy/UTM sessions used to understand the number of sessions per seat license.
Scope FortiProxy.
Solution

For example, run a CLI command to show the session license details.

 

diag wad license detail


Purchased License Seat: 100
Available License Seat: 100
Max Licensed Session: 2500

 

License shown on GUI dashboard:

The Max Licensed session is 2500 derived from 25 sessions x 100 License Seat. That also means that FortiProxy is supported by 2500 max proxy/UTM sessions.

 

Note:

FortiProxy in HA mode. The half of license seats in the slave unit were added to a primary unit like the example below. 

 

License Seats Registered:


FPX4HETA19-----9: 1000
FPX4HETA19-----9: 1000


New License Seats Adjusted:


FPX4HETA19-----9: 1500 <----- Primary Unit.
FPX4HETA19-----9: 500

Available License Seat: 1500
Max Licensed Session: 37500
Current Licensed Session: 37500

 

FortiProxy in HA mode needs FC entitlements (UTM licenses) for both devices for seat sharing to work. In v7.2.0 and above, the license sharing is 100% instead of 50%.
