Hi,
Have anyone been able to get a Fortigate VM run on MacOS with an ARM chip?
The M-mac's have been around for quite a while now, but I still haven't found anyone who actually made it work.
BR,

Hi @PRosenlind ,
I tried installing the FortiGate KVM image on my M1 Mac before. I was successful with the UTM app. But It was not working at full performance.
I think we still need to use an x86-based CPU for FortiGate VM.
It would be great if ftnt could be investigate if it's possible to run it on the m1 macbooks and how. I mean, there's an ARM image to run, but from what I know, it's hard to get that working as well even thou the M-processors are using the same architecture.
