FORTINET FC-10-0500E-108-02-DD FortiGate 500E Intrusion Prevention Service

FC-10-0500E-108-02-DD IPS Identity

FC-10-0500E-108-02-DD is the FortiGuard Intrusion Prevention Service entitlement for one existing FortiGate 500E. It supplies IPS engine and signature updates; it does not include a firewall appliance, replacement hardware or managed policy operation.

Service Boundary

Fortinet identifies service code 108 as IPS. The service supports signature-based detection and protocol analysis for identifying and blocking malicious traffic, including malicious URL and botnet indicators used by IPS controls. It is distinct from antivirus, web filtering, hardware support and a managed SOC service.

Before registration, match the exact appliance serial and FortiCare account, then verify the installed FortiOS release, enabled IPS sensors, inspection mode and available capacity. Signature behavior and protocol coverage depend on the deployed configuration, not the order code alone.

Platform Inspection Plan

The platform token 0500E maps this entitlement to a diskless E-series campus firewall. List the 500E serial, campus segments, two 10Gb handoffs, FortiLink scope, HA peer, IPS sensors and central event collector.

Evaluate staff, guest, server and managed-device traffic separately. Software distribution or research traffic should receive narrow protocol or destination exceptions rather than disabling IPS for an entire campus zone.

Sample signature behavior on each material segment and verify identity, policy, action and central event arrival. Remove temporary exceptions after the application owner confirms the corrected path.

Campus governance starts with different test users and devices for staff, guest, server and managed endpoint segments. Correlate FortiLink and identity context with the IPS action so a help-desk report can be traced to the correct sensor. Package repositories and research tools must use narrow protocol or destination exceptions with a custodian. Verify both 10Gb handoffs and the central event path before declaring the campus policy stable.

Contract Evidence

The DD suffix does not state a fixed duration on this page. Preserve the authorized quote, exact start and end dates, co-termination terms, serial, account and registration region.

• Match 0500E, the exact FortiGate 500E serial and FortiCare account.
• Inventory IPS sensors, protected policies, exceptions and logging destinations.
• Verify FortiOS compatibility, inspection capacity and overlapping bundle coverage.
• Retain allowed-flow, blocked-pattern and event-delivery acceptance evidence.
