Device profiles
A device profile, or provisioning profile is a subset of a model device configuration. Each device or device group will be able to be linked with a device profile. When linked, the selected settings will come from the profile, not from the Device Manager database.
By default, there is one generic profile defined. Device profiles are managed in a similar manner to policy packages. You can use the context menus to create new device profiles.
Device profiles support the following settings:
DNS
Time settings (NTP settings)
Alert email
Admin settings
SNMP
Replacement messages (Global only, you can customize per VDOM replacement messages)
Log settings
FortiGuard
Go to the Device Manager tab, then select the Provisioning Profiles section in the tree menu to configure device profiles.

You can create, edit, or delete profiles by right-clicking on a profile. You can also select the devices that will be associated with the profile by selecting Assigned Devices from the right-click menu, or selecting Edit from the Assigned Devices field in the top right corner of the content pane. A provisioning profile can also be created from a device by selecting Create From Device in the right-click menu.
You can link a device to the device profile using the Add Device Wizard, from the device’s dashboard page in the Device Manager tab, or by right-clicking and editing the profile and selecting devices.
