Consider a nationwide company replacing network security at thirty branch offices.
Each branch contains a FortiGate firewall, FortiSwitch, and several FortiAP units.
The head office also has larger FortiGate appliances and FortiManager.
The first asset spreadsheet records only Fortinet equipment by branch.
This is not sufficient for resale.
The network team reorganizes the inventory.
FortiGate models are listed separately.
High availability pairs remain matched.
FortiSwitch models are recorded with PoE and port counts.
FortiAP devices are grouped by wireless generation.
FortiManager is recorded independently.
Support status is checked.
Sensitive configurations are removed according to company policy.
The resulting inventory provides a much clearer basis for professional valuation.
This is an educational composite example based on common enterprise security and networking refresh projects and is not presented as a named customer transaction.
