Has anyone found an automatic solution for shutting down your Fortigate when/if the there is a power loss? Something similar to the Powerchute program that comes on APC UPS's that sends the signal to shutdown a server at a certain battery percentage remaining?

    I was just asking myself the same question. Is there a way to trigger a normal shutdown of a Fortigate or FortiWiFi 60D firewall when the UPS is running low on battery charge following a power failure?

    Hello,

    As far as I remember, you can run a script from a server/Workstation in order to shutdown your Appliance.
