FortiGate will allow this by enabling the advanced FortiClient profile.

Once enabled, when navigating to Security profiles > FortiClient Profiles, the advanced configuration dialogue box will be displayed and provides an option to enter the code to be pushed.
config endpoint-control profile
edit <profile_name>
config forticlient-winmac-settings
set forticlient-advanced-cfg enable
end
end
