Hi,

 

Is Fortigate Virtual Machine supported on Apple M1 running paralells software? And if not, is support in the roadmap?

 

Note, this is for lab purposes only.

 

Regards,

Im trying to run a the vm in Mac OS with m1 pro but in Vmware fusion, the message is basically, this is not an intel proc so you can't run, the vm its for an intel processor, im looking for another method.

It wont work, its not designed to work with an M1 chip.

 

@abarushka is there any sign of this in the roadmap?
