Description

This article describes an issue where the IP/Netmask configuration fails to load for the heartbeat and management interfaces in GUI after performing an upgrade to FortiOS v7.6.0.

Scope

    set hbdev "port4" 100

    set session-pickup enable

            next

        end

    set override disable

    set priority 255

end
