Once the VM boots, access its console through your hypervisor management tool. Log in using the default credentials: : admin Password : Leave blank (press Enter).

Use virt-manager (GUI) or virt-install (CLI) to define the new virtual machine. A typical CLI deployment command looks like this:

unzip fmg-vm64-kvm-v6-build1183-fortinet.out.kvm.zip

: Schedule automated firmware upgrades across device groups to ensure consistent security patching. Fmg-vm64-kvm-v6-build1183-fortinet.out.kvm.zip

: While version 6.2 requirements were lower than modern builds, current FortiManager-VMs typically require at least 4 CPUs , 8 GB of RAM , and 500 GB of disk storage .

Within the broader Fortinet ecosystem, the FortiManager VM is one of several virtual appliances. Other common appliances include the FortiGate (FGT) VM for next-generation firewall (NGFW) services and the FortiAnalyzer (FAZ) VM for centralized logging and reporting. Fortinet offers VM images for the VM on all major hypervisors, including VMware ESXi (OVF format), Microsoft Hyper-V, and the major cloud providers (AWS, Azure, GCP).

Leverage APIs provided by Fortinet for integration with FortiGate and FortiManager. This includes using REST APIs for configuration and management. Once the VM boots, access its console through
