Changing firmware from the device

Caution: Back up the configuration before downgrading. Downgrading the firmware may ! reset the device to that firmware’s default configuration, resulting in data loss. This includes

the interface IP addresses, as well as HTTP, HTTPS, SSH, and Telnet administrative access. For back up procedures, see the FortiGate Administration Guide.

In addition to immediately changing a device’s firmware from within the portal, you can also immediately change the device’s firmware by logging in to the device’s web-based manager.

Use the portal web site to schedule when to upgrade the device’s firmware image. For more information, see “Changing firmware from the portal web site” on page 44.

Note: The option, Upgrade from FortiGuard network, appears only after the device has validated the service license.

If you downgrade device firmware to FortiOS 3.0 MR6 or lower, support for the service is removed.

To immediately change firmware

1In the FortiGate web-based manager, go to System > Status.

2In System Information, in Firmware Version, select Update.

3Select “FortiGuard Network” in Upgrade From list.

If you want to downgrade the device’s firmware, enable Allow firmware downgrade.

4Select the firmware version.

5Select OK.

A status message appears: Downloading firmware from FortiGuard server, please wait.

6If you are downgrading the firmware, after the image is successfully downloaded, another message appears.

This operation will downgrade the current firmware version. Are you sure you want to continue ?

7Select OK.

Scripts

Scripts allow you to deploy identical configuration items to many devices. You can view configured scripts from the Script menu. For example, if all of your devices use identical administrator access profiles, you can create the access profile once as a script, and then deploy the script to all devices which should use those same settings.

The Script tab allows you to upload and deploy configuration scripts.
