Linux-based EMS model

Linux-based EMS model

EMS 7.4.0 introduces a shift to a Linux-based model from the Windows Server-based model in earlier EMS versions. This change provides numerous benefits, including improved architecture and flexibility.

See the following documents for information on this change:

Note

Because implementing or migrating to EMS 7.4.0 on the Linux platform can be complex, Fortinet highly recommends FortiClient Best Practices Service (BPS).

FortiClient Best Practices Service is an account-based annual subscription providing access to a specialized team that delivers remote guidance on deployment, upgrades, and operations. The service allows customers to share information about their deployment, user requirements, resources, and other related items. Based on the information provided, the BPS experts can provide recommended best practices, sample code, links to tools, and other materials or assistance to speed adoption and guide the customer towards best practice deployments. The team does not log into customer devices to make changes for them. This is a consulting and guidance service which may include sample configurations or playbooks. This is not an on-site professional services offer.
