What's New

For release information prior to 2025.2.14, see FortiMonitor Agent 24.4.0 Release Notes.

October 30, 2025

  • Linux and macOS Agent: Added FortiClient integration capability to read and store the endpoint’s gateway public IP.

August 28, 2025

  • DEM Agent: Added logic to include MAC addresses in Agent handshake matching.

June 17, 2025 (2025.2.14)

  • Added support for the following HTTP timing metrics for application monitoring:

    • TTLB

    • DNS response

    • Server Response (HTTP 200)

    • TCP Connect

    • HTTP(s) response

  • Added Support for device sleep and power-off events.
    The Agent now detects device sleep and shutdown events (for example, when a laptop lid is closed or the system powers off). Heartbeat incidents are no longer triggered during these events. When such an event is detected, the Agent attempts to send a status payload to the aggregator to indicate the change.
    Note
    : Due to differences in operating system shutdown processes, transmission of this payload is not guaranteed.

  • Windows Agent: Improved agent PowerShell plugin in discovery. This update adds a check during discovery to ensure that any new plugins are picked up without requiring a restart.

  • Windows Agent: Agent metadata optimizations.

  • Linux Agent: The Linux Agent now supports DEM (Digital Experience Monitoring). To enable DEM, add the --dem parameter to the installation command. For example:

    curl -s https://repo.fortimonitor.com/install/linux/fm_agent_install.sh | bash /dev/stdin -c <customer-key> --dem

  • Linux Agent: Added support for Python 3.13.

  • macOS Agent: The macOS Agent previously used the airport command-line utility to collect Wi-Fi metrics. Following the deprecation of airport in macOS Sonoma 14.4, support has been added for its replacement tool, wdutil.
