Licensing
With a multitude of deployment methods supported across various private and public cloud deployments, FortiGate-VM for Microsoft Azure
supports both on-demand (PAYG) and bring-your-own-license (BYOL) licensing models.
On-demand licensing is a highly flexible option for both initial deployments and growing them as needed. With a wide selection of supported
instance types, there is a solution for every use case. This license offers FortiOS with UTM bundle.
BYOL is ideal for migration use cases, where an existing private cloud deployment is migrated to a public cloud deployment. When using an
existing license, the only additional cost would be the price for the Microsoft Azure instances.
FortiGate-VM can also be deployed in regional Azure such as Azure Government, Germany, and China.
AzureStack is also supported (BYOL only).

Actual performance may vary depending on the network and system configuration.
Performance metrics were observed using FortiGate-VM BYOL instances using FOS v6.2.1 and FortiTester-VM running on Azure. 1. The number of consumable network interfaces varies depending on Azure instance types/sizes. 2. FortiGate Azure PAYG instances
do not support FortiToken. 3. The latest information about Azure bandwidth is found on https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/virtual-machines/windows/sizes-general. 4. IPS performance is measured using Enterprise Traffic Mix and 1 Mbyte HTTP. 5. Application
Control performance is measured with 64 Kbyte HTTP traffic.
