11Enter the firmware image filename and press Enter.

The TFTP server uploads the firmware image file to the FortiGate unit and messages similar to the following are displayed:

FortiGate unit running v2.x BIOS

Do You Want To Save The Image? [Y/n]

Type Y.

FortiGate unit running v3.x BIOS

Save as Default firmware/Run image without saving:[D/R] or

Save as Default firmware/Backup firmware/Run image without saving:[D/B/R]

12Type D.

The FortiGate unit installs the new firmware image and restarts. The installation might take a few minutes to complete.

Restoring the previous configuration

Change the internal interface address, if required. You can do this from the CLI using the following command:

config system interface edit internal

set ip <address_ipv4mask>

set allowaccess {ping https ssh telnet http}

end

After changing the interface address, you can access the FortiGate unit from the web-based manager and restore the configuration.

For more information, see the FortiGate Administration Guide.

If you are reverting to a previous firmware version (for example, reverting from FortiOS v3.0 to FortiOS v2.80), you might not be able to restore your previous configuration from the backup up configuration file.
