Management extension applications

The following section describes supported models and minimum system requirements for management extension applications (MEA) in FortiManager 6.4.9.

Note

FortiManager uses port TCP/4443 to connect to the Fortinet registry and download MEAs. Ensure that the port is also open on any upstream FortiGates. For more information about incoming and outgoing ports, see the FortiManager 6.4 Ports and Protocols Guide.

Supported models for MEA

You can use any of the following FortiManager models as a host for management extension applications:

FortiManager

FMG-3000F, FMG-3000G, FMG-3700F, FMG-3700G, FMG-3900E, and FMG-4000E.

FortiManager VM

FMG-VM64, FMG-VM64-Ali, FMG-VM64-AWS, FMG-VM64-AWSOnDemand, FMG-VM64-Azure, FMG-VM64-GCP, FMG-VM64-HV (including Hyper-V 2016, 2019), FMG-VM64-KVM, FMG-VM64-OPC, FMG-VM64-XEN (for both Citrix and Open Source Xen).

Minimum system requirements

Some management extension applications supported by FortiManager 6.4.9 have minimum system requirements. See the following table:

Management Extension Application

Minimum system requirement

SD-WAN Orchestrator At least 12GB of memory is recommended to support SD-WAN Orchestrator MEA.
Wireless Manager (WLM) A minimum of 4 CPU cores and 8 GB RAM is typically required. Depending on the number of running applications, the allocated resources should be increased.
