Description
To force tunnel between a FortiManager unit and a FortiGate unit, use this CLI command:
FMG # execute fgfm reclaim-dev-tunnel <device name>

This CLI command will replace the serial number of a FortiManager unit in the FortiGate configuration, in the section "system central-management".

However, this operation will not complete, if the provided FortiGate administrator credentials do not match.
