Licensing events and alarms

When the number of licenses used reaches 75% of total licenses an event is generated and an alarm is triggered to warn you. When the number of licenses used reaches 100% of total licenses another event is generated and an alarm is triggered. These percentages are default values. Modify thresholds for these events under Event Management on the Thresholds tab via the FortiNAC server user interface.

Administrators must monitor the Alarm View, the Alarm panel on the dashboard or modify these alarms such that the alarms send a notification to administrators as they occur.
