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

Each account is limited to ten (10) sensors by default. To expand this limit, contact your Technical Success Manager.
