FortiClient - nativ support on Apple Silicon M1 Macs

[Thorsten_brainbits]

Hi Fortinet-Support,

we are in the testing phase for the new MacBooks with Apple Silicon M1 CPU.
Unfortunately we are not able to install the FortiClient on the M1 MacBook without the Rosetta emulation runntime for Intel Applications.
As mention in your Release notes, all version up from 6.4.6 to 7.02 should be compatible with Apple Silicon M1.
We unsuccessfully tested all available versions (downloaded from Fortinet Support Portal).

So our question is, does FortiClient support Apple Silicon M1 CPU natively you do we have to install the Rosetta emulation runtime?

If we need Rosetta, could you give us an ETA for an nativ M1 client?

Thanks for your support and best regards,
Thorsten
