Generating a QR code for centrally managing FortiClient (Android) and (iOS) endpoints

You can create a QR code to distribute to FortiClient (Android) and (iOS) users. FortiClient (Android) and (iOS) users can scan the QR code from their device to automatically enable FortiTelemetry and attempt connection to the specified FortiClient EMS server.

QR codes can contain the FortiClient telemetry connection key if desired.

To generate the QR code:

1. Go to System Settings > EMS Settings.
2. Do one of the following:
   • To generate the QR code without a connection key, beside the Listen on IP field, click View QR Code.
   • To generate the QR code with a connection key, ensure that the FortiClient telemetry connection key field is populated, then click View QR Code beside it.
3. In the dialog, select or deselect Show FortiClient telemetry connection key as desired.
4. Click Continue.
5. Click Download.
6. Save the QR code image to your machine.
7. Email the QR code to FortiClient (Android) and FortiClient (iOS) users.

For instructions on scanning the QR code from an Android or iOS device, see Launching FortiClient (Android) for the first time or Running FortiClient iOS.
