Using the web-based manager

Note: To use this procedure, you must log in using the admin administrator account, or an administrator account that has system configuration read and write privileges.

To revert to a previous firmware version

1Copy the firmware image file to the management computer.

2Log into the FortiGate web-based manager.

3Go to System > Status.

4Under System Information > Firmware Version, select Update.

5Type the path and filename of the firmware image file, or select Browse and locate the file.

6Select OK.

The FortiGate unit uploads the firmware image file, reverts to the old firmware version, resets the configuration, restarts, and displays the FortiGate login. This process takes a few minutes.

7Log into the web-based manager.

8Restore your configuration.

For information about restoring your configuration see “Restoring a configuration” on page 28.

Backup and Restore from a USB key

Use a USB key to either backup a configuration file or restore a configuration file. You should always make sure a USB key is properly install before proceeding since the FortiGate unit must recognize that the key is installed in its USB port.

Note: You can only save VPN certificates if you encrypt the file. Make sure the configuration encryption is enabled so you can save the VPN certificates with the configuration file. An encrypted file is ineffective if selected for the USB Auto-Install feature.

To backup configuration

1Go to System > Maintenance > Backup and Restore.

2Select USB Disk from the backup configuration to list.

3Enter a file name for the configuration file.

4Select Backup.

To restore configuration

1Go to System > Maintenance > Backup and Restore.

2Select USB Disk from the restore configuration from list.

3Select a backup configuration file from the list.

4Select Restore.

Using the USB Auto-Install

The USB Auto-Install feature automatically updates the FortiGate configuration file and image file on a system reboot. Also, this feature provides you with an additional backup if you are unable to save your system settings before shutting down or rebooting your FortiGate unit.
