Managing Networks on FortiEdge Cloud
A network is a logical grouping of FortiAP, FortiSwitch, and FortiExtender devices for common configuration and management. A FortiEdge Cloud account can have multiple networks. For instance, if you have 20 devices and you plan to use 10 devices in the head office and the other 10 devices in a branch office, then you would create two networks.
In a network, you can also group devices into subsets (sites) and then apply configurations to those subsets. For example, in an office building, you can have a device subset for each floor of the building. Navigate to the Networks page the from the main menu of the FortiEdge Cloud GUI. This page displays the FortiEdge Cloud networks. To access a network, click the network name. A separate tab opens. You can add, rename, delete, clone networks, or assign a network to an account.
Though it is possible and valid to have a single network containing all devices, and apply configurations to subsets of devices, the recommendation is that you create multiple independent networks.
