Downloading the FortiWeb-VM license & registering with Technical Support

For Hypervisor deployments, when you purchase FortiWeb-VM from your reseller, you receive an email that contains a registration number. You use this number to download the software and your purchased license, and also to register your purchase for technical support.

If you have purchased an offline license, that is, the license for FortiWeb-VM which is deployed in a closed network environment, your license file is sent directly to you from Fortinet Customer Support team. You can skip the following register & download steps.

Many Fortinet customer services such as firmware updates, technical support, and FortiGuard services require product registration.
