Sensor provisioning

Sensor provisioning

FortiNDR Cloud sensors are self-provisioning appliances that require a registration code from the portal.

To provision a sensor:
  1. Generate a registration code

  2. Register a sensor

Once these steps are complete, the sensor will call home, provision itself, and then be ready to ingest raw mirrored traffic. By default, a sensor will use DHCP but a static IP address can be set if desired.

Note

FortiNDR Cloudsupports unlimited sensors. For deployments involving more than 10 sensors, we recommend customers work with their TSM to ensure best practices are followed and the configuration is optimized.
