Activating a FortiCloud account for logging purposes
When you subscribe to FortiCloud, you can configure to send logs to the FortiCloud server. The account activation can be done within the web-based manager, from the License Information widget located in System > Dashboard.
From this widget, you can easily create a new account, or log in to the existing account. From within the License Information widget, after the account is activated, you can go directly to the FortiCloud web portal, or log out of the service if you are already logged in.
To activate a FortiCloud account for logging purposes:
The following assumes that you are already at System > Dashboard and that you have located the License Information widget.
1. In the License Information widget, select Activate in the FortiCloud section.
The Registration window appears. From this window, you create the login credentials that you will use to access the account.
2. Select Create Account and enter then information for the login credentials.
After entering the login credentials, you are automatically logged in to your FortiCloud account.
3. Check that the account has been activated by viewing the account status from the License Information widget.
If you need more space, you can subscribe to the 200Gb FortiCloud service by selecting Upgrade in the FortiCloud section of the widget.
