The v-series and s-series do not support virtual domains (VDOMs) by default. To add VDOMs, you must separately purchase perpetual VDOM addition licenses. You can add and stack VDOMs up to the maximum supported number after initial deployment. |
FortiOS 6.2.3 and later versions support the S-series licensing. |
Generally there are RAM size restrictions to FortiGate-BYOL licenses. However, these restrictions are not applicable to AliCloud deployments. Any RAM size with certain CPU models are allowed. Licenses are based on the number of CPUs only.
For information about each model's order information, capacity limits, and adding VDOM, see the FortiGate-VM datasheet.
