Direct answer for buyers evaluating VM08
Fortinet FortiMail VM08 is the eight-vCPU model in Fortinet’s FortiMail virtual-appliance range. It is mainly used to place FortiMail email security controls into supported virtual or cloud infrastructure while retaining customer control over deployment, policy, routing and resource allocation. It should be considered by larger organisations whose mail flow, protected-domain count or operational design exceeds smaller VM tiers, but the model should not be selected on company size alone. Before proceeding, confirm peak messages per hour, average message size, protected domains, server-mode requirements, hypervisor or cloud platform, virtual CPU allocation, memory, storage, network-interface design, FortiGuard bundle, cloud API integration and whether installation or migration assistance is required.
What FortiMail VM08 does
The VM08 runs the FortiMail email-security platform as a virtual appliance. In practical terms, it can sit in an organisation’s messaging path to inspect inbound and outbound email, apply anti-spam and antivirus services according to the selected bundle, enforce message and content policies, support quarantine workflows, provide data loss prevention controls and contribute to reporting and investigation. Fortinet also positions FortiMail for phishing, business email compromise, impersonation, malware and other email-borne threats, but the exact services available depend on the license and bundle purchased.
The virtual format is useful when an organisation already standardises on hypervisors or cloud infrastructure and wants lifecycle control through virtual-machine operations rather than introducing another physical appliance. That flexibility does not remove infrastructure responsibilities: compute, memory, disk, virtual networking, backup strategy, monitoring and change control remain important parts of the design.
Who should consider it
Fortinet identifies VM08 as a large-enterprise option, and its published limits support that position: up to eight virtual CPUs, up to 1,000 protected email domains and up to 2,000 local mailboxes in server mode. Those figures are platform limits, not a universal sizing recommendation. A business with fewer users can still generate heavy email traffic, while a large workforce with light traffic may fit another model depending on architecture.
VM08 may suit central IT departments, multi-domain enterprises, shared-service teams, distributed groups consolidating email protection, organisations with established VMware, Hyper-V, KVM or supported cloud operations, and environments that need the policy control of a customer-managed FortiMail instance. It may be unnecessarily large for a smaller deployment that can meet performance and domain requirements with VM04 or below. FourTeck can help compare the required scale before a bill of materials is finalised.
Business problems the VM08 can help address
High-volume email inspection
When mail traffic grows beyond the comfort range of smaller virtual tiers, VM08 provides an eight-vCPU license ceiling and higher published message-processing figures. Actual results still depend on host hardware, message size, enabled services and traffic patterns.
Multiple domains and policies
Organisations managing many email domains can use the model’s higher domain allowance and policy capacity. Domain associations and advanced-management licensing can affect how domains are organised, so the desired administrative model should be planned before ordering.
Cloud and hybrid mail environments
FortiMail can complement Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace deployments. For VM08, cloud email API integration is optional rather than automatically included, which makes the API requirement an important licensing decision.
Policy and data handling
Data loss prevention and centralised quarantine are supported on VM08. Buyers should still define the required rules, data classifications, encryption behaviour, retention approach and operational ownership instead of treating these controls as automatic outcomes.
Core capabilities in a buyer-friendly view
FortiGuard antivirus, antispam and Virus Outbreak Prevention are associated with the Base Bundle in Fortinet’s current ordering guide. Enterprise ATP adds cloud sandboxing-related protection.
Recipient-based policies, authentication and content profiles let administrators apply different controls by domain and system scope within published limits.
VM08 supports data loss prevention and centralised quarantine. Effective use depends on rule design, ownership, user workflow and the data-governance requirements of the organisation.
Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace email API integration is listed as optional. Confirm the exact connector SKU and term when post-delivery or API-based controls are required.
Is FortiMail VM08 the right fit?
Use this matrix as a starting point. It is not a substitute for sizing because message volume, average message size and enabled security services can materially change the resources required.
| Requirement | Suitable when | Confirm before ordering |
|---|---|---|
| Eight-vCPU scale | The deployment needs headroom beyond smaller VM tiers and the host can allocate the required CPU resources. | Peak mail flow, CPU allocation policy, host contention and selected FortiGuard services. |
| Large domain count | The organisation needs up to the published 1,000 protected-domain capacity. | Primary domains, associated domains, tenancy model and advanced-management requirement. |
| Virtual deployment | The business prefers customer-managed virtual infrastructure over a dedicated FortiMail hardware appliance. | Supported hypervisor or cloud, network design, storage and operational ownership. |
| Cloud mailbox security | Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace requires FortiMail controls beyond gateway-only processing. | Cloud Email API add-on, supported workflow, tenant permissions and scope. |
| Advanced administration | Shared services or MSSP-style administration requires more tenancy and management controls. | Advanced Admin & MSSP add-on eligibility, operational model and domain grouping. |
Verified FortiMail VM08 technical information
The values below are drawn from Fortinet’s January 2026 FortiMail data sheet and current ordering guide. Fortinet states that performance figures are indicative, hardware dependent and measured under specific lab conditions. Production results can vary with host hardware, message size, enabled services, traffic mix and environment.
Configuration, licensing and platform dependencies
A FortiMail VM08 quotation can be incomplete if the request simply says “VM08 license.” Fortinet’s current ordering model separates virtual-appliance scale from service bundles and add-ons. The Base Bundle and Enterprise ATP Bundle cover different security-service levels, while Cloud Email API integration, advanced administration, dynamic image/content analysis and email continuity can involve additional licensing. A buyer should therefore specify the security outcome and integration model, not just the eight-vCPU tier.
The host environment is equally important. Fortinet publishes minimum and maximum VM resource values, but the recommended allocation should be based on workload. CPU contention on a busy hypervisor cluster can undermine an otherwise correct license choice. Storage design should account for queueing, quarantine, logs, reports and any server-mode role. Network-interface count depends on the selected operating mode and architecture. If transparent mode is being considered, Fortinet notes limitations on Microsoft Hyper-V and cloud hypervisors because of available network configuration capabilities, so the intended deployment mode should be validated before the VM is built.
Cloud platform support also has version, marketplace and deployment nuances. The current data sheet lists AWS, Azure, Google Cloud Platform, Oracle Cloud Infrastructure and Nutanix AHV alongside traditional hypervisors, but buyers should confirm the current image, licensing path and supported topology for the chosen platform. FourTeck can help translate the technical design into a quotation request that identifies the VM tier, bundle, subscription term, add-ons and professional-service scope.
A practical deployment and purchase journey
Measure the mail workload
Collect peak and average messages per hour, average message size, inbound/outbound ratio, domain count, mailbox architecture and growth expectations. These are stronger sizing inputs than employee count alone.
Choose the security services
Decide whether Base Bundle coverage is sufficient or whether Enterprise ATP and add-ons such as Cloud Email API, advanced administration or continuity are required.
Validate the platform
Confirm hypervisor or cloud version, vCPU availability, RAM, storage, virtual NIC design, IP addressing, DNS, mail routing, backup and monitoring expectations.
Design routing and cutover
Document MX records, relay permissions, connectors, accepted domains, TLS requirements, authentication, coexistence and rollback. A correct security appliance can still fail operationally if the mail-routing change is poorly planned.
Request the bill of materials
Ask for the exact VM08 commercial model, bundle, term and required add-ons. Include installation, configuration, migration or knowledge-transfer services if they should appear in the same quotation.
Test before production reliance
Validate inbound and outbound flow, false-positive handling, quarantine access, policy order, TLS, alerting, logs, backups and operational ownership before treating the deployment as business-as-usual.
Capability focus: performance without treating lab figures as guarantees
Fortinet publishes VM08 performance figures of 675,000 messages per hour for email routing, 630,000 per hour with FortiGuard Antispam plus Virus Outbreak, and 585,000 per hour with Enterprise ATP. These numbers are useful for relative sizing across the FortiMail VM family, but they should not be read as guaranteed production throughput. Fortinet explicitly states that the figures are hardware dependent and based on a defined lab platform using 100 KB messages. Real organisations see mixed message sizes, attachments, TLS sessions, connection spikes, policy lookups, logging, quarantine actions and other workload characteristics that can change the result.
For procurement, the key question is not “Can VM08 process 675,000 messages per hour?” but “What is our peak traffic, with the security services we intend to enable, on the host resources we will actually allocate?” A business that averages modest traffic but experiences sharp bursts may need different headroom from one with steady flow. Likewise, enabling cloud API workflows produces different published performance figures from gateway routing. Planning should therefore identify the security path for each mailbox population and the expected concurrency.
FourTeck can use those workload inputs to help determine whether VM08 is proportionate or whether another FortiMail VM tier deserves consideration. This reduces the risk of buying an oversized license because of company headcount or an undersized license because average traffic looked low.
Capability focus: policy, domains and administrative scale
The VM08’s published limit of 1,000 protected email domains can be significant for groups that operate many brands, subsidiaries, delegated domains or shared email services. Fortinet defines protected email domains as the number of email domains that can be configured on the appliance, and it also supports domain associations that can share configuration with a primary domain. The current data sheet notes that an advanced-management license can increase the protected-domain limit by 50 percent, but that does not mean every buyer needs that add-on. The administrative model should drive the license decision.
VM08 also lists 800 recipient-based policies per domain and 3,000 per system for incoming or outgoing use, plus 50 antispam, antivirus, authentication and content profiles per domain and 400 per system. Those counts show that the platform can support detailed policy structures, yet complexity should be managed carefully. Hundreds of overlapping rules can become difficult to audit, troubleshoot and hand over. A sensible design uses groups, reusable profiles and documented exceptions wherever possible.
If the environment is a shared service or requires multi-tenancy features, discuss the Advanced Admin & MSSP license before purchase. The ordering guide identifies it as an add-on for enterprises and service providers requiring multi-tenancy and additional administration functions. Confirming this early is preferable to discovering after deployment that the intended delegation model needs a different license component.
Capability focus: Microsoft 365, Google Workspace and hybrid mail
Many buyers evaluating FortiMail VM08 are no longer protecting only an on-premises Exchange environment. They may have Microsoft 365, Google Workspace, hybrid connectors, acquired domains or a staged migration. Fortinet’s current FortiMail portfolio supports cloud-based email security, and the VM08 data sheet lists Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace Email API integration as optional. This distinction matters because a gateway deployment and an API-integrated deployment do not have identical traffic paths, permissions or licensing.
Gateway protection normally relies on mail routing through FortiMail, with DNS, connectors and accepted-domain configuration forming part of the design. API integration can add coverage for cloud mailboxes and post-delivery workflows according to the selected service, but the exact connector service must be included in the bill of materials. Buyers should identify which tenants and domains are in scope, whether all users follow the same mail path, and whether a hybrid environment will remain long term or only during migration.
This is also where operational ownership becomes important. Cloud administrators may control tenant permissions while network or messaging teams control routing and certificates. A deployment plan should assign responsibility for both sides. FourTeck can help structure the requirement so the quotation includes the VM tier and cloud-integration component rather than assuming one automatically includes the other.
Ideal business environments and use cases
Large corporate messaging perimeter
A central email-security gateway for businesses with substantial inbound and outbound mail, many domains and an established security operations process.
Private-cloud standardisation
Organisations that prefer virtual appliances because compute, storage, backup and lifecycle operations are already standardised around a supported hypervisor platform.
Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace enhancement
Businesses that want FortiMail controls around cloud email and are prepared to license and configure the optional API connector where required.
Multi-domain groups
Holding companies, education groups, service organisations or regional businesses that operate many protected domains and need a scalable policy structure.
Security-fabric environments
Fortinet-oriented security architectures where email events may be integrated with technologies such as FortiSandbox, FortiSIEM or FortiSOAR, subject to the chosen products and integration design.
Controlled server-mode deployments
Use cases requiring local mailboxes in FortiMail server mode, within the VM08 published limit of 2,000 local mailboxes and after confirming that server mode matches the business requirement.
Integration and operational considerations
Email security sits in a sensitive traffic path, so integration planning should cover more than the virtual machine itself. DNS and MX records, outbound smarthost configuration, accepted domains, relay permissions, TLS certificates, LDAP or directory lookups, authentication, cloud connectors, logging destinations, administrator access and monitoring all influence the production outcome. If an existing gateway is being replaced, document the current routing rules and exceptions before building the new platform.
High availability should also be discussed if email continuity requirements are strict. The exact topology depends on FortiMail design, licensing and infrastructure, so redundancy should be included in architecture review rather than assumed from a single VM08 purchase. Host-level resilience is not identical to application-level resilience: restarting a virtual machine on another host may address a host failure, but it does not automatically provide the same behaviour as a deliberately designed FortiMail HA architecture.
Operationally, decide who handles quarantine, false positives, policy changes, incident investigation, reporting, software upgrades, license renewals and backup. A well-sized appliance without an ownership model can become difficult to maintain. Where required, FourTeck can discuss configuration, migration and support coordination through its business technology services alongside the product quotation.
Questions to resolve before ordering
A precise quotation is easier when technical and procurement teams agree on a small set of facts. These questions help identify whether VM08 is the correct model and which commercial components belong with it.
Procurement checklist for FortiMail VM08
How FourTeck can assist with sizing and quotation
FourTeck can help convert an email-security requirement into a cleaner product and service request. That can include reviewing whether VM08 is proportionate to the workload, clarifying the selected FortiGuard bundle, identifying optional cloud-email or administration add-ons, discussing deployment dependencies and coordinating a quotation for the UAE. The goal is to reduce ambiguity around the bill of materials rather than to assume that one VM license covers every desired feature.
If implementation support is needed, share the existing mail platform, DNS and routing arrangement, current gateway, cloud tenant, number of domains, migration constraints and desired cutover window. This lets installation and configuration scope be discussed separately from product licensing. Buyers can also browse FourTeck’s technology product catalogue and deployment and support services when the project includes complementary infrastructure.
UAE availability and support guidance
Contact FourTeck to confirm current Fortinet FortiMail VM08 options for the UAE. Availability can depend on the commercial license model, chosen security bundle, add-on services, subscription duration, quantity and vendor lead time. A virtual appliance does not require shipping in the same way as a physical device, but entitlement, license delivery, account registration, support activation and any required cloud marketplace process still need to be coordinated correctly. Do not assume that a quoted VM08 line automatically includes Cloud Email API integration, advanced administration, email continuity or implementation services.
For a useful quotation, provide the destination organisation, required term, deployment platform, expected message volume, domain count and desired services. If configuration, migration or testing should be included, state that requirement at the quotation stage. FourTeck can then discuss current licensing and project coordination rather than presenting an unverified stock or delivery promise.
Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Sharjah and Ajman coverage
Businesses operating in Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Sharjah and Ajman can use FourTeck as a single contact point for requirement clarification, quotation coordination and discussion of deployment services. The exact support approach may be remote, on-site or mixed depending on project scope and location. For multi-site organisations, share which site hosts the virtual infrastructure, which teams manage email and cloud tenants, and whether configuration must be coordinated across several offices. This helps separate the location of users from the location of the FortiMail infrastructure and keeps the project scope accurate.
GCC Availability
FourTeck can discuss FortiMail VM08 requirements for organisations planning email-security projects across GCC markets including the United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Qatar, Bahrain and Oman. Regional projects often need more than a model number: licensing route, destination country, cloud or hypervisor platform, support expectations, implementation responsibility and subscription term can affect the final quotation. For a multi-country rollout, it is useful to standardise the technical design while still confirming country-specific procurement and deployment conditions. Product availability, license fulfilment, delivery of entitlements, service visits, project timelines and vendor lead times can vary by country, quantity and requirement. Share the destination country, exact FortiMail model or subscription option, required quantity, bundle, add-ons, deployment location and target schedule so FourTeck can coordinate current options. For Kuwait-focused enquiries, FourTeck also maintains a regional technology resource. No local-stock, customs, fixed-delivery or country-certification claim should be assumed without project-specific confirmation.
Africa Availability
Organisations evaluating FortiMail VM08 for Africa can contact FourTeck for product, licensing and deployment guidance across relevant regional projects. The main planning questions are the same as elsewhere—exact model, security bundle, cloud-email integration, subscription term, virtualisation resources and support scope—but fulfilment can additionally depend on the destination, licensing region, local infrastructure, shipping requirements for any complementary hardware and the practical conditions of installation or remote support. Businesses in East Africa, West Africa, Southern Africa and Central Africa should provide the destination country, required quantity, preferred deployment schedule and any configuration, migration or training expectations. FourTeck can then review suitable commercial and technical options without assuming local inventory or immediate shipment. Regional resources for Kenya, Uganda and the wider Africa technology market can also support project discussions. Availability, vendor lead time, service coverage and local project conditions should always be confirmed for the specific requirement.
Related options and complementary services
FortiMail VM04
A smaller four-vCPU virtual-appliance tier that may be worth comparing when VM08 capacity is more than the workload requires. Selection should be based on verified performance and domain needs.
FortiMail VM16
A larger 16-vCPU tier for environments whose traffic, domain scale or growth requirement exceeds VM08. Do not assume it is needed solely because the business is large.
FortiMail Cloud
A hosted alternative for organisations that do not want to operate their own FortiMail virtual infrastructure. Licensing and operational responsibility differ from the VM model.
FortiSandbox integration
FortiMail can integrate with FortiSandbox capabilities as part of advanced threat workflows. Confirm the selected bundle, service and architecture before treating sandboxing as included.
Configuration and migration services
Use FourTeck’s services team to discuss installation, routing changes, policy migration, testing and handover where those activities are required.
Why businesses contact FourTeck for FortiMail planning
The value of a reseller or project partner is not simply sending a price. FortiMail VM08 can be purchased under different licensing approaches and combined with several security bundles and add-ons. The correct quotation therefore depends on understanding what the organisation is trying to protect, how email is routed, where the VM will run and which security outcomes are required.
FourTeck can assist with requirement clarification, model comparison, bill-of-material review, licensing questions, compatibility discussion, quotation coordination, implementation planning and renewal guidance. These activities can help procurement teams compare like-for-like offers and give technical teams a clearer view of what is included. Buyers can learn more about FourTeck through the company overview or contact the team directly when the project details are ready.
What buyers are really trying to work out before choosing VM08
Most FortiMail VM08 research begins with a simple question about price or specifications, but the purchase decision usually turns on a different issue: whether this is the right virtual-appliance tier for the way the organisation actually uses email. VM08 is not merely “FortiMail with eight CPUs.” It is a sizing point in a six-tier virtual-machine family, and its value depends on whether the workload, policy scale and platform design justify that tier. Fortinet’s current documentation places it in the large-enterprise category and publishes significantly higher message-processing figures than VM04, yet a business should still validate its own peak traffic rather than treating the category label as a substitute for measurement.
Is VM08 licensed by mailbox count?
The virtual appliance itself is a CPU-tiered product, while FortiMail Cloud uses per-mailbox licensing. Fortinet’s ordering guide says VM appliances can be purchased through perpetual or subscription licensing. Buyers sometimes confuse the VM product with FortiMail Cloud because both secure email, but the commercial models differ.
Does eight vCPUs mean eight must always be dedicated?
VM08 supports up to eight vCPUs, but production allocation should follow Fortinet guidance and the workload design. Hypervisor overcommit and contention can reduce real-world performance. The host should be treated as part of the security system, not as an unrelated infrastructure layer.
Can it protect Microsoft 365 without changing MX records?
That depends on the chosen design. FortiMail supports gateway and cloud API approaches, and the VM08 data sheet identifies Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace Email API integration as optional. API-based coverage should be scoped and licensed rather than assumed.
Another frequent buyer concern is the meaning of published throughput. Search results often surface a single messages-per-hour number without its test conditions. Fortinet actually publishes several values: routing performance, Antispam plus Virus Outbreak performance, Enterprise ATP performance and separate Cloud API figures. The VM08 routing figure is 675,000 messages per hour, but the Enterprise ATP figure is lower at 585,000, demonstrating why security-service choice matters to sizing. Fortinet also states that the figures are hardware dependent and based on a lab system. A responsible design therefore uses them as comparative indicators, then checks the intended host, message size and peak volume.
Licensing questions are equally common because there are base, ATP and add-on service references across reseller listings. The current Fortinet ordering guide is the right anchor: it shows a Base Bundle, an Enterprise ATP Bundle and add-ons including Cloud Email API, Advanced Admin & MSSP, email continuity and dynamic content analysis. That means two quotations for “FortiMail VM08” can differ materially if one contains only the base security services while another contains ATP and cloud integration. Procurement teams should compare exact SKU descriptions and terms, not just the product name.
Buyers also ask whether VM08 is suitable for hybrid environments. It can be, but hybrid is not one architecture. Some organisations retain on-premises Exchange for part of the estate while moving others to Microsoft 365; others use Google Workspace for one business unit and different routing for another. The FortiMail design must account for each path, accepted domains, connectors and ownership. The optional cloud API service may be relevant where cloud mailbox scanning or post-delivery actions are part of the requirement.
Storage is another area where a one-line specification can mislead. Fortinet’s table shows 250 GB minimum and 8 TB maximum for VM08, while a footnote explains that 250 GB is needed during initial OVF setup and that the default OVF can be deleted after deployment, allowing the disk to be set no lower than 50 GB. Rather than using the smallest possible disk simply because it is technically allowed after setup, the design should consider quarantine volume, logs, message queues and operational retention needs.
Finally, organisations searching for a Dubai or UAE price should expect the final number to depend on licensing model, term, bundle and add-ons. A bare web price may refer to a one-year subscription, renewal, perpetual VM entitlement, support contract or add-on rather than the complete project. Send FourTeck the intended deployment platform, required term, peak mail volume, domain count and desired security functions so the quotation can be aligned to the actual use case.
Decision questions that change the final design
How do we know whether VM08 is too large or too small?
Compare measured peak message flow, average message size, protected domains and required security services against Fortinet’s published model data. Then check expected growth and host capacity. The “large enterprise” label is useful context, but it should not be the only sizing factor. FourTeck can help compare VM04, VM08 and VM16 when the requirement sits near a boundary.
Which license line should procurement ask for?
State whether the requirement is perpetual or subscription-based, identify the required service bundle and specify the term. If Cloud Email API, advanced administration, continuity or other add-ons are needed, request them as explicit line items. This makes competing quotations easier to compare and reduces the risk of assuming an add-on is included.
What should the infrastructure team reserve?
Plan virtual CPU, RAM, disk, virtual NICs, IP addressing and network segments according to the architecture. VM08 supports up to eight vCPUs, 4 to 64 GB of RAM and one to six virtual NICs. Storage should be sized for the production role rather than reduced to a theoretical minimum after deployment.
What changes if our mail is already in Microsoft 365?
Decide whether FortiMail will be used primarily as a gateway, through the optional cloud API connector, or through a combination appropriate to the design. That decision affects licensing, tenant permissions, mail routing and potentially performance. It should be settled before deployment rather than during cutover.
Do we need professional services if the VM template is easy to deploy?
The virtual machine is only one element. Mail routing, DNS, certificates, policies, accepted domains, directory integration, cloud connectors, testing and rollback need planning. Teams with strong internal FortiMail skills may handle this themselves; others may prefer assistance with design, configuration or migration.
What information produces the fastest useful quotation?
Send the exact model request, country, quantity, license term, preferred bundle, required add-ons, peak message rate, protected domains, platform and service scope. If those details are unknown, provide the current email environment and user/domain scale so FourTeck can ask the right sizing questions before pricing.
Frequently asked questions about FortiMail VM08
What is Fortinet FortiMail VM08?
It is an eight-vCPU FortiMail virtual email-security appliance, manufacturer SKU FML-VM08. Fortinet positions it for large-enterprise deployments and supports it across listed virtualisation and cloud platforms subject to current version and topology requirements.
How many vCPUs does FortiMail VM08 support?
Fortinet lists a maximum of eight virtual CPUs for VM08. Production resource allocation and host capacity should be validated against the expected mail workload and enabled security services.
How many email domains can VM08 protect?
The current Fortinet data sheet lists 1,000 protected email domains for VM08. Domain associations can support additional domains sharing configuration, and Fortinet notes that advanced-management licensing can increase the protected-domain limit by 50 percent.
Is Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace API integration included?
No automatic inclusion should be assumed. Fortinet lists Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace Email API integration as optional for VM08, so the required connector service and term should be confirmed in the quotation.
What are the published VM08 performance figures?
Fortinet publishes indicative figures of 675,000 messages per hour for routing, 630,000 with Antispam plus Virus Outbreak and 585,000 with Enterprise ATP. These are hardware-dependent lab figures and should not be treated as guaranteed production throughput.
What memory and storage does VM08 need?
Fortinet lists 4 GB minimum and 64 GB maximum memory. Its table lists 250 GB to 8 TB storage, with a footnote explaining the initial OVF deployment requirement and possible post-deployment reduction. Production storage should be sized for queues, quarantine, logs and retention.
Can VM08 run in AWS, Azure or other public clouds?
The current Fortinet data sheet lists AWS, Microsoft Azure, Google Cloud Platform and Oracle Cloud Infrastructure among supported platforms, alongside VMware, Hyper-V, Citrix XenServer, KVM and Nutanix AHV. Confirm the current image, licensing route and deployment mode for the chosen platform.
Does VM08 include FortiGuard security services?
Security services depend on the purchased bundle. Fortinet’s ordering guide shows Base Bundle and Enterprise ATP Bundle options for VM subscription licensing, plus separate add-ons. The quotation should name the exact bundle rather than simply say VM08.
How can I get a FortiMail VM08 quote in Dubai?
Send FourTeck the required license term, bundle, quantity, deployment platform, message volume, domain count and any cloud API or implementation requirement. FourTeck can then confirm current UAE options and coordinate a quotation without making an unverified stock or delivery claim.
