FORTINET FC-10-0VM16-100-02-12 FortiMail VM16 1 Year FortiGuard Antivirus Service

FC-10-0VM16-100-02-12 Renewal Record

FC-10-0VM16-100-02-12 is a 1 year FortiGuard Antivirus Service entitlement for one eligible, registered FortiMail VM16. It is delivered electronically and does not include the FortiMail VM license, a virtual machine, server hardware or cloud hosting.

Before Approval

Use an annual term when architecture, capacity or service selection may change soon. Record activation and expiry, assign a renewal owner and review utilization before extending the entitlement.

For annual VM16 antivirus service, treat update availability as a critical control across the high-capacity mail perimeter. Capture signature status, traffic coverage, exception handling and redundancy; investigate whether standalone antivirus creates gaps relative to the organization's broader threat model. Establish a change window for engine updates, a documented bypass approval and a recovery path if scanning disrupts message delivery. Correlate malware detections with the security operations workflow and retain evidence from both cluster roles. The renewal owner should evaluate concentration risk and whether advanced analysis is justified for the protected domain portfolio.

• Match service code 100 to the authorized quote and exact FortiMail VM16 serial.
• Confirm 12 months of coverage without gaps or unexplained overlap.
• Record the Fortinet account, activation owner, current software release and deployment identity.
• Verify included and excluded services before treating this legacy SKU as equivalent to a current bundle.

License Boundary

Fortinet identifies antivirus as a FortiGuard security service for FortiMail. This legacy standalone line should be treated as an electronic malware-signature/service entitlement for the registered appliance, not as a FortiMail virtual appliance, a support contract or a complete email-security bundle.

Before ordering, confirm whether the installed FortiMail already receives antivirus through a Base or Enterprise ATP bundle. Avoid overlapping coverage, preserve the activation dates and verify that the appliance can reach the required FortiGuard update services.

VM Evidence

Fortinet documents FortiMail VM16 as a tier supporting up to 16 vCPUs, with published sizing that includes 1,500 protected email domains and 3,000 server-mode mailboxes. Sizing figures are planning limits, not resources delivered by this SKU. VM16 is a sixteen-vCPU FortiMail tier used for materially larger mail-security workloads. Its entitlement record should include cluster role, traffic baseline, storage monitoring, deployment platform and incident ownership.
