FORTINET FC-10-0091G-212-02-36 FortiGate 91G Services and Subscriptions

FC-10-0091G-212-02-36 Overview

Premium RMA 4-Hour Delivery with Engineer provides four-hour replacement delivery with an onsite engineer for an eligible covered device.

This SKU is a 3 years service entitlement for an existing FortiGate 91G; it does not include hardware.

Order Composition and Delivery

This FC service code is delivered electronically against an appliance that must already exist. No chassis, power supply, antenna or replacement hardware is shipped as part of the line item. The order therefore needs the installed FortiGate serial number, current contract status, registered end customer, FortiCare account and desired start date. Check for gaps or overlaps with existing coverage before activation. A buyer who also needs a new firewall should select a hardware or BDL SKU as a separate purchasing decision.

Service Scope and Boundaries

This RMA option combines a four-hour replacement-delivery objective with onsite engineering for an eligible location. Before purchase, verify geographic availability, engineer access, safety requirements, approved maintenance contacts and the underlying FortiCare coverage. Define whether the onsite scope includes only hardware replacement or additional recovery steps. It remains a support add-on and must not be described as continuous managed service or bundled threat protection. Compared with delivery-only four-hour RMA, this option adds an onsite engineer. Confirm that the added onsite scope addresses a real staffing constraint and is officially available at the destination.

Verified Platform Facts

• FortiGate 91G has eight GE RJ45 ports, two multi-gigabit RJ45 or 10GE SFP+ shared-media pairs and a 120 GB SSD.
• Fortinet documents Sovereign SASE service code 1082 for FortiGate 91G devices only.
• Fortinet lists 4.5 Gbps IPS, 2.5 Gbps NGFW and 2.2 Gbps threat-protection throughput for the 90G series.

FortiGate 91G uses the same 90G family interfaces and performance envelope while adding a 120 GB SSD. The storage difference matters for local logging and distinguishes 0091G service records from 0090G. FortiSASE Sovereign code 1082 is documented specifically for 91G, so sovereign region, supporting services and activation sequence must be confirmed before ordering.

Verify WAN media, eight RJ45 roles, 120 GB SSD use and log retention before service activation. For code 1082, complete the sovereign portal, region and supporting analytics prerequisites before registration. Store the 0091G entitlement, serial and sovereign deployment owner together so the specialized service cannot be applied to another 90G-family model.

Term and Procurement Fit

The thirty-six-month term reduces annual renewal events while keeping the contract inside a typical mid-life review window. Align the end date with the appliance support plan and security-policy review cycle. Reserve budget once for the initial three-year period, assign a contract owner, and schedule a formal service review around the middle of coverage. The review should test whether the deployment, registered owner and required controls still match the SKU before renewal planning begins in the final year.

For three-year coverage, record the full committed period in the asset register and avoid treating it as three separate annual licenses. Review registration after activation, verify service use during the first year, and perform a structured midpoint check during the second year. In the final year, compare remaining hardware life, planned site changes and current service requirements before requesting renewal pricing. Contract ownership must survive departmental budget changes because no annual purchase event will naturally remind the team.

Confirm address coverage, site access, engineer requirements and qualifying support.
