For professionals running open-source virtualization platforms like KVM (Kernel-based Virtual Machine) or Proxmox VE, the file format of choice is QCOW2 (QEMU Copy-On-Write). Critical CVE-2024-23113 (FortiOS SSL VPN) – Fixed in

• Use it for: SD-WAN labs, site-to-site VPN testing, managed security gateway.
• Avoid it for: 10 Gbps inline inspection, legacy hypervisors (VMware users – look for the .ovf version).

Resources: For KVM deployment, ensure you have allocated at least 2 vCPUs and 2GB of RAM to meet the minimum requirements for v7.2.  Resources : For KVM deployment
