Hello Guys,

i’m moving from a Fortigate 500E to a 400F and need to copy all the configuration through Fortimanger (version 7.4.10).

The customer is using the Vpn Manager tool on Fortimanger to manage all the Vpn, where i’m stuck, is that i can’t understand where i can add the new firewall to setup the vpn.
I’m only able to edit the existing tabs but not able to insert the new firewall, how can i do it?
I’d like to do something like for the policy package, insert the new firewall in the installation target and fortimanger will install everything smoothly.

For now i’ve imported all the vpns configuration manually via cli, but would like to allign the vpn manager…..

Any tips?

 

Thank you

Regards

first you need to add the FortiGate under Device Manager > Device&Groups if not already.

L.E.

Hi ​@funkylicious ,

it is already added on fortimanger, under devices/groups, all the configurations done were done via cli script in fmg
