FortiManager VM supports Amazon EC2 IMDS version 2

Support for Amazon EC2 Instance Metadata Service (IMDS) version 2 was added to FortiManager virtual machines (VMs) for enhanced security.

IMDS version 2 uses session-oriented requests. With session-oriented requests, you create a session token that defines the session duration, which can be a minimum of one second and a maximum of six hours. During the specified duration, you can use the same session token for subsequent requests.
