Validate device ownership
Stating with the 21.3.c release, FTC is able to handle device ownership transfer without human intervention, automatically cleaning up user data on the transferred device from the source account.
Below are the use cases that show how FTC handles change of device ownership:
-
If you move a device (e.g., FortiGate) license and the FTC license to a new account, your FTC service will continue after the transfer.
-
If you move the FTC license to a new account but leave the device in the old account with no other FTC license, there will be no FTC service for the device.
-
If you move the device license to a new account where there is another (new) FTC license and leave the old FTC license in the old account, usage from that device now will count against the new FTC license (not the old one).
-
If you move the FTC license to a new account but leave the device in the old account, and then add a new FTC license to the old account, usage from that device will count against the new license (not the old one).
To validate the ownership of a device:
- Click applications > Devices (HA) .
- In the Manage Device Ownership section, mouse over the device of interest.
- In the toolbar on the right, select Validate.
- When the Device Ownership Info message pops up to show the ownership status of the device.
- Click OK.
