Hello,
Is FortiClient suitable for installation on hypervisors? What devices is FortiClient designed for?
Thank you
Hi @Gianluca1
FortiClient is not specifically designed for installation on hypervisors.
It is intended for use on the following devices and operating systems:
1. Microsoft Windows 7, 8, 8.1, 10, and 11 (both 32-bit and 64-bit where applicable).
2. Windows Server 2012 or later.
3. macOS: Version 10.14 or later.
4. iOS: Version 9.0 or later.
5. Android: Version 5.0 or later.
6. Linux: Ubuntu 16.04 and later, Red Hat 7.4 and later, CentOS 7.4 and later with KDE or GNOME.
FortiClient is designed for endpoint devices rather than hypervisors.
Best regards,
Erlin

Hi @esalija,
Thanks for your reply, everything is clear. One last thing: my company has asked me to install FortiClient on Proxmox, which runs on Debian GNU/Linux 13 (Trixie). I understand that it is not designed to be installed on a hypervisor, but is there a way to install it on this Debian GNU/Linux 13 (Trixie) distribution? I tried to install it, but I'm having some difficulties.
Thank you.
