Licensing

FortiLAN Cloud offers the following licensing options for product subscriptions. For more information about acquiring licenses, contact the Fortinet Customer Support team.

Subscription	Description
Freemium	Free subscription for FortiLAN Cloud.
Device License	A license is bound to each device (FortiAP/FortiSwitch).

A FortiLAN Cloud Freemium Account license allows deploying a maximum of 30 unlicensed FortiAPs and 3 FortiSwitches across networks with basic management functions. After the enforcement, you cannot deploy any more unlicensed devices or create/modify networks, and any additional devices (deployed beyond the permissible limit) are un-deployed. Click on the (warning) icon to view the grace period details and the network/devices in the grace period. An additional 60 days grace period is given to any device with a valid license that is expiring. After the grace period, the system randomly retains (up to) a maximum of 30 freemium FortiAPs and 3 freemium FortiSwitches. Any other FortiAPs/FortiSwitches will not be able to connect to the service but can retain their configuration.

For advanced management, you must purchase a license for each FortiAP and FortiSwitch device, see the FortiLAN Cloud Data Sheet.

Note: FortiAP-U models require an additional license for the Universal Threat Protection feature. You are required to purchase this license in addition to the advanced management license.
