Are you refering to wireless controller in the cloud?

 

Then it's already up and running. You access it from www.forticloud.com

Your access points needs to be on 5.2.2

 

Then access a fortiap via http and you'll see FortiCloud as an option.

No, not the controller in the cloud ... the authentication with the Facebook Account. Look here: https://www.facebook.com/help/126760650808045/

Facebooks documentation doesn't include Fortinet.

Only Cisco, D-link, NetGear, Meraki and Open Mesh are listed

 

There doesn't appear to be any support for 3rd party devices other then the specifc ones listed. If FortiGate will support this it seems resonable to assume that information would show up on facebook.
