Fortinet Product Life Cycle Information
Fortinet Product Life Cycle Information
Fortinet suggests that customers familiarize themselves with the Fortinet Product Life Cycle Policy.
Particularly important to Fortinet customers are the three product life cycle milestones that each Fortinet product passes through before reaching the end of its life cycle:
Last Order Date (LOD)/ End of Order (EOO) - This milestone represents the last date that Fortinet will accept orders for the related product. This milestone also represents the last date that customers may purchase or attach new maintenance contracts to an affected product.
Last Maintenance Extension - This milestone represents the last date Fortinet will accept an order for an extension, or renewal, of an existing support contract attached to a product that is no longer available for sale. Support contract extensions may not extend beyond the End-of-Support milestone described below.
End-of-Support (EOS) - This milestone represents the last date support will be offered and represents the final milestone in a Fortinet product's life cycle. After this date, Fortinet will not sell, manufacture, improve, maintain or support the affected product and considers it obsolete.
