Adding a FortiAP device to FortiLAN Cloud with a key

Use this procedure to add a FortiAP device to your FortiLAN Cloud account using its FortiLAN Cloud key (or multiple FortiAP devices with a bulk key).

If the FortiAP device does not have a FortiLAN Cloud key, then go to the Adding a FortiAP device to FortiLAN Cloud without a key procedure.

Prerequisites

• Find the FortiLAN Cloud key printed on a sticker located on your FortiAP device.
• If you purchased a bulk key to add multiple FortiAP devices in a single import, then locate that bulk key on the purchase order (PO) from Fortinet.

Procedure steps

1. Using an Ethernet cable, connect the FortiAP device to a network that allows internet access.
2. Log in to FortiCloud and connect to FortiLAN Cloud.
3. On the Home page, navigate to Devices > Inventory Devices.
4. Click Add APs. If you have a bulk key, click Bulk.
5. Type the key.
6. Click Submit.
7. Make sure that the FortiAP device is added to the inventory list.
8. You can now go to the Managing Networks on FortiLAN Cloud procedure.
