Definition
FortiManager Ordering Guide: FortiManager VM and Cloud are licensed by the number of Fortinet devices/Virtual Domains managed (for example FMG-VM-100-UG "Upgrade license for adding 100 Fortinet devices/Virtual domains"; FortiManager Cloud "Subscription for 100 devices/vdoms managed by FortiManager Cloud").
Counting rules
Device Licenses Count (applies to FortiManager-VM, Cloud and hardware): a FortiGate with VDOMs disabled counts as 1; with VDOMs enabled each VDOM counts as 1; an unregistered device in the root ADOM counts as 1; a FortiAnalyzer managed by FortiManager counts as 1. Not counted: the global VDOM, the secondary FortiGate of an HA pair, hidden devices, FortiAP, FortiSwitch and FortiExtender. Perpetual VM device add-ons also set a GB/day logging allowance (for example 5 GB/day with FMG-VM-100-UG).
Floors / minimums
VM subscription bundles in 10, 100 and 1,000 device packs (fully stackable); FortiManager Cloud from 3 devices; FortiFlex FortiManager-VM from 1 to 100,000 devices.
