Model devices

Model devices are used to store configuration for a device that is not yet online nor connected to the network.

Once the device is online and connected to the network, the model device configuration is automatically installed to the online device.

Additionally if FortiManager has a model device configured, which matches a connecting device, that device is automatically authorized for management by FortiManager.
