After you order a FortiSandbox VM license, Fortinet sends a license registration code to the email address in the order. Use that license registration code to register the FortiSandbox VM with Customer Service & Support at https://support.fortinet.com.

After registration, you can download the license file. You need this file to activate your FortiSandbox VM. You can configure basic network settings using CLI commands to complete the deployment. When the license file is uploaded and validated, the CLI and GUI will be fully functional.
