FortiAnalyzer-VM Unique Certificate

To safeguard against certificate compromise, FAZ-VM (and FGT-VM) will allow the same deployment model as FMG-VM, whereby the license "file" contains a unique certificate tied to the virtual device's serial number.

  • Past licenses for FortiAnalyzer-VM used a default certificate number (FAZ-VM0000000001) which did not match the serial number.
