Creating an enterprise client license key
After you register your enterprise license (see “Configuring an enterprise license”), you can create enterprise client licenses. For each of these licenses, you can set the expiry date and the seat limit. Client license expiry dates and the total number of seats licensed through enterprise client licenses cannot exceed the limits of the enterprise license.
To create enterprise client license keys:
1. Go to Settings > Enterprise License to configure the enterprise license.
For more information, see “Configuring an enterprise license”.
2. Select the Enterprise Client License Management link.
The list of enterprise client licenses is displayed.
3. Select Add.
The New Client License dialog opens, with an enterprise client license key value in place.
4. In the Name field, enter a name to identify the license.
5. In the Seats Permitted field, enter a number seats that is within the range shown at the right.
The maximum number of seats allowed is the enterprise license limit minus the number of enterprise client licenses actually issued to FortiClient agents.
The total seats permitted in all enterprise client licenses can exceed the enterprise client limit. The FortiManager unit enforces the enterprise license limit only on the actual number of managed enterprise-client licensed FortiClient agents.
6. In the Expiry Date field, enter a date that is no later than that of the enterprise license.
7. Optionally, enter a description.
8. Select OK.
