Mass instalation of 200 FortiClients and first update about 200MB each.

payday · ‎11-05-2014

After automatic installation of 200 FortiClients, every one downloads about 200MB of signatures from Internet. This means: 40 GB have to be downloaded just for FortiClient installation. Can I avoid it? Consequent updates are smaller and are not using that much of Internet so the problem is just installation. I don't want to buy FortiManager only for first signatures update. Is there any way to import current signatures from local file into FortiClient after installation?

There is no way to get FortiClient signature by yourself. It's not available on support.fortinet.com.

If you use a caching proxy on your site does this still apply?

Does it then only download once and then serve from the proxy?
