Forticlient VPN ARM processer

Hi,
We bought an Microsoft Surface Pro 9 which has an ARM processer.
The point of buying this was to hook it up with the Fortinet VPN, so we could go anywhere and still be connected.
Problem is i can't install it on the Surface Pro 9, due to having an ARM processer.
I was wondering if there was any early access or beta for Forticlient VPN for ARM processers that we could try?

Or is there any other solution?

I tried the Microsoft store app, but that doesn't seem to work with SAML.
The VPN connection is SAML with Azure.

FortiClient for ARM is now available on the support portal. Look for the version 7.4.3.

if you encounter the error message 'Sorry, you don't have any product covered by a Fortinet support contract'. please make sure that you're using an account with a valid support contract at least one registered device.

Best,

Hello there,

Finally the waiting is over, thanks to the fortinet development team.

Could you provide me with the download link for the new arm client and the forticlient remover, cause I tried to install it previously, without success.

@rtanagras Thanks for the DM. I have installed VPN-only for ARM without any issue and it's working now! Now I am complete :) 
Tip: You should post the download versions online immediately. Saves you a lot of DM's ;)

The released version of FortiClient for ARM (7.4.3) does NOT include all the features of the Windows version. An updated document will be released next week which includes list of features currently implemented. Other features will be gradually included in the ARM version in next versions.

ARM-based processor support is in beta. As such, for ARM-based processors, FortiClient supports a limited feature set as follows:

  • Fortinet Security Fabric agent (connection to EMS and Telemetry)
  • Remote Access (IPsec and SSL VPN)
  • Web Filter
  • Vulnerability Scan

Hi , would you be able to share a link to download version 7.4.3 for testing? It's been really tough because I can't remote into my work network at all. If it works, I’ll let my IT team know so they can proceed with the version upgrade.

Thanks!
