Activating add-on licenses

If you have purchased an add-on license and have a FortiCloud account, you can use the License Information widget to activate an add-on license. You will need the contract registration code to activate the license.

After you enter the contract registration code for the license, FortiAnalyzer communicates with FortiCloud to activate the license.

To purchase a new license:

1. Go to the Fortinet Technical Support site at https://support.fortinet.com/.
