Replacement from Fortinet’s Firewall Upgrade Advisor.
What this means in practice

Fortinet no longer provides support services for this model, and lapsed cover can’t be reinstated. If the unit fails, there’s no hardware replacement to claim, so the swap becomes an unplanned purchase and migration.

TradeUp runs separately from these lifecycle dates. Eligibility, the discount and any service transfer are confirmed against the unit’s serial number, entitlement and replacement path when we price the upgrade.
