FORTINET FC-10-F80FD-284-02-60 FortiGate 80F-DSL Services and Subscriptions

FC-10-F80FD-284-02-60 Procurement Identity

FC-10-F80FD-284-02-60 is the Elite support tier for one eligible registered FortiGate 80F-DSL under accepted service-level and regional terms for 5 years. This FC service line is not physical hardware.

FortiGate 80F-DSL operating boundary

Validate serial, account, service country, dates, prerequisites, FortiOS, DSL service type, provider parameters, backup WAN, configuration custody and external logging. The entitlement does not include a carrier line or appliance.

Service acceptance

Verify severity criteria, executive contacts, technical owners, site eligibility and evidence needed for priority handling. Run a tabletop that distinguishes critical edge failure from carrier or application faults.

Platform-specific evidence

Measure acknowledgement, diagnostic transfer, customer decision and closure delays separately. Preserve alternate decision makers and account recovery so priority access survives staff changes. Correlate DSL synchronization and provider state with route, policy, application outcome and external event evidence. Test the approved backup path without treating carrier loss as proof of a security-service failure.

Five-year carrier and platform lifecycle

Review DSL technology support, provider contract, line condition, software, power, account custody and evidence every year. A long entitlement does not guarantee long-term carrier suitability.

Access dependency register

Track copper plant, provider equipment, demarcation, backup carrier, branch lease, power, certificate owners and migration budget. Identify which dependency can force early exit.

Access migration triggers

Define triggers for recurring synchronization loss, unsupported access technology, sustained demand, evidence gaps or branch relocation. Assign funding and cutover ownership.

Year-three alternative-access proof

Test representative applications, VPNs, policy behavior, failover, external evidence and rollback on the intended successor circuit and appliance design.

Long-term provider exit package

Preserve circuit identifiers, fault history, demarcation records, billing owner, termination notice and any returnable provider equipment. Keep this commercial closeout separate from security configuration and serial deauthorization.

Final carrier coordination

Sequence provider termination, new access acceptance and entitlement transition so the branch retains a tested rollback path.

Final line and serial closeout

Preserve configuration and cases, terminate or transfer carrier service, remove credentials and document deauthorization.

Exclusions

The line includes no appliance, security subscription, unlimited field engineering, undocumented service level, automatic incident approval or local evidence archive.
