Order types

On Rackspace, there is one order type: pay-as-you-go (PAYG).

With a PAYG subscription, the FortiGate-VM becomes available for use immediately after you create the instance.

To purchase PAYG, all you need to do is launch the product on the Rackspace marketplace. However, you must contact Fortinet Support with your customer information to obtain support entitlement. See Creating a support account.

PAYG FortiGate instances do not support the use of VDOMs.

PAYG FortiGate instances do not support additional FortiGate features that require separate licenses.

When using a FortiGate-VM PAYG instance, the GUI may display expiry dates for FortiGuard services. However, these expiries are automatically extended for as long as the PAYG instance's lifespan. You do not need to be concerned about the expiry of FortiGuard services.
