Thats correct. Only one trial VM per account.

Limitations of the evaluation VM license include the following:

  • Maximum of one free evaluation copy per FortiCare account

Solved mines as well. Downloaded the wrong VM: FFW when it should have been FG

Raghas

That solved my issue also. I downloaded Fortinet Firewall and not FortiGate.
