This release introduced several enhancements to the Fortinet ecosystem:

Once the KVM initialization script exits, attach to the running console to execute initial interface bindings:

disk volume_id = libvirt_volume.fortigate.id

qemu-img check fgt-vm64-kvm-v7.2.1.f-build1254-fortinet.out.kvm.qcow2

If your host supports it, passthrough a Virtual Function (VF) directly to the VM for line‑rate performance.

DPDK operates in polling mode by default, which consumes 100% of allocated vCPU time even when the VM is idle:

Minimum of 2 GB RAM is required for FortiOS 7.0.0 and above.

FortiGate-VM uses a specific interface naming convention that differs from standard Linux distributions:

Provision the VM, ensuring the NICs are set to "virtio" and the display is set to "VNC" or "Spice" for initial console access. Critical Note on Licensing
