Extender Manager for central managed FortiExtender devices

The Extender Manager allows you to create FortiExtender templates, SIM profiles, and Data plans. After a template is created, you can assign it to a managed device and install the profiles and plans on FortiExtender.

The FortiExtender module is always displayed in Central Management mode regardless of whether there is connection to a FortiExtender device.

1. Go to Extender Manager.

   

2. Create a FortiExtender template.
   1. In the tree menu, go to Profiles > FortiExtender Templates.

      After importing the template, the template will be assigned to the FortiExtender where the template was imported from.

      

4. After creating a new template, the template can be assigned to an existing FortiExtender.

   1. In the tree menu, go to Profiles > SIM Profile.
