| Solution | - Does this enforced automatic update behavior also impact FortiGate's that only use FortiGate Cloud for Logging and how does it behave if central management is turned off:
The Firmware Upgrade schedule requires a management tunnel connection. If the central management is off, the default firmware profile will be assigned but no upgrade can be scheduled. - What firmware version does this enforcement apply to and does it only apply to the latest available v7.6
FortiOS version convention is v<major>.<minor>.<patch>, for instance, v7.2.9 has major version 7, minor version 2, and patch version 9. The ‘latest-patch’ firmware profile will upgrade the firmware to its latest mature patch version available. - What if the device requires an upgrade path, does it follow the recommended upgrade path :
It will follow the FortiGuard upgrade path. Related document Upgrade Path Tool Table can be used to verify the recommended upgrade path. - Does it automatically backup the configuration file:
It will automatically back up the device’s configuration. |
