- After enabling cloud managment, the FortiGate admin user will receive a confirmation message: 'Configuration of this device has not been initialized in FortiGateCloud, please set Central Management to FortiGate Cloud from device and verify the management tunnel is up. And it may take a few seconds to initialize.'
