Keep Forti-Updated
FAQ Partner Extranet
How do I access the partner extranet?
Login information (user name and password) to access the
partner extranet is provided via email once your company has
been accepted to join the FortiPartner Program. The welcome
email is sent to the person in your organization who sent the
application online through www.fortinet.com/partners/fpp. This
individual will be considered the primary contact for the partner
organization unless otherwise requested after the initial sign-up.
How do I recover a lost partner password?
Send an email to [email protected]
The primary contact for each partner can add additional
associates in their organization for access to the Fortinet partner
extranet.
Where can I find Marketing and Sales materials in the partner
extranet?
In the section “sales tools”, you will find updated presentations, quick
datasheets, FAQs and all brochures about our range of products. If
you would like to have more
information
on
these
materials, you can send an
email
to
[email protected]
How do others in my organization access the partner
extranet?
All personnel in your organization are eligible to access the
partner extranet and can be issued a user name and password
providing them with access to all the information they need for
doing business with Fortinet and growing your revenues.
To add an individual or individuals the primary contact within the
organization simply goes to the “Add Associates” link of the
partner extranet and adds each individual assigning them their
user name and password, or just the user name and the system
will create the password. Each associate will receive a welcome
email with their assigned user name and password for the
partner extranet. Associates will not have the tab for adding new
individuals unless they are edited to be a primary contact. If you
would like to change primary contacts within your organization,
please email us at [email protected]
Do I have to use partners.fortinet.com for opening a technical
ticket?
Yes. As a partner, the only way to have priority in the treatment of
your tickets is to open a technical ticket via partners.fortinet.com. This
is highly recommended.

EXPORT CONTROL RULES
As a FortiPartner, you are responsible for exporting/importing Fortinet products in accordance with the requirements of the U.S.
Export Administration Regulations, and applicable local/foreign regulations. Factors, such as the specific product, end-user, end-use
and country of ultimate destination, may affect the export licensing requirements. You are urged to consult the U.S. Export Administration
Regulations, the Bureau of Industry & Security’s Export Counseling Division, Customs, and other appropriate resources such as an attorney
or consultant specializing in trade compliance before exporting/importing Fortinet’s products.
Please direct any inquiries to [email protected]
For additional information, please visit Fortinet's Partner Extranet, Global Trade Compliance section under “Notes and other Tools” at:
http://partners.fortinet.com
I. Fortinet does not sell to Embargoed/Sanctioned/Terrorist
supporting countries which are currently:
1. Cuba
2. Iran
3. Liberia
4. Myanmar (Burma)
5. North Korea
6. Sudan
7. Syria
8. Zimbabwe
NOTE: Although no longer embargoed Libya and Iraq are still
highly sensitive and orders require GTC review. Countries listed
above may have broad or narrow sanctions which must be
reviewed.
III. Government end-users – Contact your trade compliance
personnel for Government end-user orders outside of the
EU “license free zone” which is: Austria, Australia, Belgium,
Cyprus, Czech Republic, Estonia, Denmark, Finland, France,
Germany, Greece, Hungary, Ireland, Italy, Japan, Latvia,
Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, New Zealand,
Norway, Poland, Portugal, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden,
Switzerland, and United Kingdom.
II. “Sensitive” countries--Contact your trade compliance
personnel regarding business prospects to review
regulatory requirements and avoid unnecessary delays:
1. China
2. Hong Kong
3. India
4. Iraq
5. Israel
6. Pakistan
7. Russia
NOTE: You’ll note that this list contains some countries wherein
you may currently do business. Categorization as “sensitive”
doesn’t mean that you cannot or do not sell to these countries.
It’s just that there may be additional licensing requirements
depending on who the end-user or what the end-use is in these
countries. That’s why we highly encourage you to contact your
trade compliance personnel or Fortinet’s Global Trade
Compliance Department as soon as you are exploring a new
business prospect so that any export regulatory issues can be
addressed early in the deal cycle.
Purchase of Fortinet’s strong encryption products by government
end-users outside of the EU “license free zone” requires that our
Partner’s obtain an export license.
A government end-user is any foreign (Non-U.S.) central,
regional, or local government department, agency or other entity
performing governmental functions; including governmental
research institutions, governmental corporations or their
separate business units…
IV. Proliferation Controls - Avoid unnecessary delays, and
contact your trade compliance personnel regarding all
prospective orders destined for End-Users involved in
designing, developing, producing, stockpiling or supporting
activities in:
1.
2.
3.
4.
Chemical or biological weapons
Nuclear weapons or Power plants
Missiles
Defense/Military
An export license is required before you can legally sell to
entities involved in these lines of business. In many cases there
is a presumption of denial for export licensing in these
categories.
Special note for low-encryption product FortiGate LENC hardware and upgrade keys
We would like to remind our partners that the option to upgrade to high
encryption is time bound and will expire 9 months after the original
LENC hardware shipping date and that all sales are final. This applies
equally to stocking orders.
Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland,
Turkey, United Kingdom
Additionally, local export/import regulations must also be complied
with.
FortiGate LENC Product
FortiGate LENC (Low Encryption) hardware product is classified for
export under U.S. ECCN: 5AA02 - ENC Unrestricted to government
end users. It is a viable alternative to avoid application for U.S.
and/local export licenses for government end users when strong crypto
features are not needed.
Please refer to the FortiGate LENC FAQ available on
partners.fortinet.com for more details related to the LENC product and
LENC License Upgrade Keys and for general information on U.S.
export controls. We recommend you also to consult with your licensed
customs broker, an import/export attorney, or local government
customs and export authorities for export and import regulation
specific to your country.
For Bundle Renewal, FortiCare and FortiGuard options please use the
SKU and pricing for the Non LENC models.
FortiGate LENC Licence Upgrade Key
FortiGate LENC license upgrade keys allow user to upgrade the crypto
features on LENC hardware product to strong crypto. A U.S. Export
license for the Upgrade Key IS REQUIRED under U.S. Export
Administration Regulations (“EAR”) for most government end-users to
upgrade their LENC hardware product with strong encryption. Unless
located in the following “EU License free zone” countries under EAR
encryption regulations:
Australia, Austria, Beligum, Bulgaria, Canada, Cyprus, Czech
Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece,
Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Japan, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg,

Ordering a FortiClient
www.forticlient.com
Licenses have variable sizing, charged on a per-seat basis. In order to receive appropriate discount pricing, it is important that the
correct SKU be used.
ORDERING INSTRUCTIONS
Individual Licenses
Individual licenses may be purchased using the 1-seat SKU for FortiClient PC End Point Security. If multiple individual licenses are
required, indicate the number required by using the quantity field. If an order line contains the single seat SKU and a quantity of 27,
the customer will receive 27 individual license keys.
Volume Licenses
Volume licenses may be purchased using any of the other FortiClient PC End Point Security SKUs. In this model, purchasing a
quantity of 27 using the SKU for 25-99 seats will result in a single license key allowing the customer to use FortiClient on 27
computers.
If for some reason a customer requires multiple distinct license keys, use separate lines on the order form. Each line on the order
form will result in a unique license key being generated.
Increasing Licensed Seat Count
In order to increase the seat count for a license, an “upgrade” must be purchased along with a renewal for support and service:
If the upgrade is done upon renewal of the existing license, the customer must order the desired seat count increase using the
upgrade SKU as well as a renewal for the new total seat count for the license.
If the upgrade is done mid-contract, the customer must order the desired seat count increase using the upgrade SKU as well
as a co-term renewal for only the new seat count for support and service through to the end of the existing contract.
Decreasing Licensed Seat Count
In order to decrease the seat count for a license, the customer may simply purchase a renewal sized for their desired seat count.
Note that if the customer wishes to increase their seat count again in the future, they may do so with a simple renewal. Only if they
exceed their previous maximum licensed seat count will they be required to follow the instructions above for increasing their licensed
seat count.
MIGRATION INSTRUCTIONS
All existing customers are in the situation of holding licenses purchased under the current licensing scheme and will have to follow a
migration path to move from the old licensing model to the new model.
The migration paths are as follows:
Customers holding a single license key may simply renew them using the correct SKU for their license size, ordering a quantity
that matches their license size or that is smaller. Should they wish to increase the license size, the instructions above for
increasing seat count must be followed.
Customers holding multiple license keys may renew the licenses separately using the standard renewal process.
Customers holding multiple license keys who wish to combine them into a single license key must ask their representative to
have their license keys merged. All license keys to be merged must share the same expiry date. Any with differing expiry dates
will have to be renewed using co-term licensing in order to align the expiry dates.

registered under the (correct) end-users’ name and contact details.
We recommend you register the units under your customer’s name and create a sub-account for yourself.

1- End-user registers the units itself
Your end-users can register their units and their service contracts themselves online at https://support.fortinet.com.

(or your end-users register the units under its name and create a sub-account for you)
If you need to open, view or monitor a ticket related to a unit managed by you, use https://partners.fortinet.com

RENEWAL PROCESS
Please also refer to the section ‘Registration’ and especially to the section on how to create a sub-account for your
company.
1. If a customer doesn’t renew its FortiGuard or FortiCare services, its product will no longer be protected against the
latest threats
2. The end-users receive an email 90, 60 and 30 days before the contract expiration date (see below)
3. The Fortinet renewal team also calls end-users as of 1 month before expiration to remind them to renew their services
and to advise them on what services they might need
4. Fortinet will then inform the reseller about the customers’ desire to renew its services
5. Subsequently, the Fortinet renewal team verifies if the services have indeed been renewed.
In case an end user doesn’t renew its services in time, it will not be held to pay retro-actively for the period during which the services were
expired. The services will re-start the day it activates the services.
Example of an email sent to the end-user 90,60,30 days before expiration date:

Press Releases

announcing each new local partner relationship but we
will rather issue press releases highlighting our channel
progress from time to time. Nonetheless, Fortinet
supports its partners’ communications and therefore
encourages them to announce their partnership with
Fortinet.
Also, please be aware that we are very eager to highlight
customer wins. We strongly encourage partners to make
us aware of any customers who would be willing to
publicize their applications and experiences with Fortinet
products and your value-added services. Customer win
announcements are a great vehicle for promoting our
partner relationship and for highlighting the partner’s role
in the customer’s success.
In order to be allowed to issue a press release
announcing the Fortinet relationship or important
customer wins, partners must have a contract signed.
Please be advised that Fortinet must review and approve
all partner press releases that discuss Fortinet products
or the Fortinet relationship prior to the press release
