I bought a new fortiswitch 124E and now want to upgrade to the latest firmware. Seems that I don't have a license to do this. do I actually need to buy a license even to get the very first upgrade. AND does not seem to have a button to register the switch to my fortigate account.
Please advise
thanks
Les

Check if you can manually download FortiSwitch upgrade package from support.fortinet.com where you can login with your account.
I can not , it says "you do not have a support contract for a switch"
Did you purchase a support agreement for the FortiSwitch?
No I did not, I thought it would be the same as a Fortigate. You get downloads and tech support for a short period.
No, you need to buy support on the switch to be entitled to firmware updates.
