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 Customer Support 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 may take up to ten minutes, depending on the performance of the device.
    Example using ftp server:
    # fw-upgrade -b -v -tftp -sFTP_Server_IP -uuser_name -f/VM00_base.pkg 
  4. Go to Scan Policy and Object > VM Settings and verify that the VM package is available and shown as Installed. The package will be disabled by default.
