Order types
On AliCloud, FortiManager is only available in a bring your own license (BYOL) order type.
BYOL includes perpetual, subscription, and FortiFlex licensing. Licenses are available for purchase from resellers or your distributors, and prices are listed in the publicly available price list that is updated quarterly. BYOL provides the same ordering practice across all private and public clouds, no matter the platform. You must activate a license the first time you access the instance from the GUI or the CLI before you start using FortiManager.
