Microsoft Windows VMs Offline Installation

To install MS Windows VMs offline:
  1. Log in to FortiCloud. The Asset Management portal opens.
  2. Locate the FortiSandbox in the Product List and download the VM package file. For more information, see Asset Portal Admin Guide > Viewing product details.
    Note

    The VM package includes built-in VMs for FortiSandbox. If you need to download additional optional OSs, please ask the Fortinet sales team where to download the required VM package.

  3. Copy the VM package to an offline FTP/SCP/HTTPS server and install it to FortiSandbox using fw-upgrade command. This process will take some time after reboot.
    Example using ftp server:
    # fw-upgrade -b -v -tftp -sFTP_Server_IP -uuser_name -f/VM00_base.pkg 

  4. Log in to FortiSandbox after the reboot.
  5. Go to Virtual Machine > VM Images and verify the VM package is available. The package will be disabled by default.
