FortiClient Sign in on Windows Server 2019 ADDC - Which domain credentials should be typed in?

Hello everyone,

we are currently working on implementation of the FortiClient Agents on all of the computers and servers in our company.

After installation of the FortiClient and entering the invitation code, the user is required to sign in with its domain credentials in order to be connected with FortiClient Cloud.
But what about servers? Which domain credentials should be typed in on a DC Server to connect to Forticlient Cloud?

Hi @Krasnoperov,

 

It will depend on which account you want the server to be associated with.

The problem is that there is no account associated with servers like domain controller or mailserver.
Should an extra dummy account be created for every server in order to be connected with FortiClient EMS?

As per my understanding FortiClient is used for clients, not for servers.

We intend to use FortiClient on the Windows Servers for its AV features and vulnerabilities scan etc.
