Hello All, Need to restore backup from FGT 1100D running 6.6.4 version to vm series . Can anyone please help me can I just dump backup from FGT 1100D to vm series directly ? .if not then what are the precautions I need to take.

Directly, no. The header has to be edited. Points to note, normally interfaces. In this case. I think it's interesting for you to insert blocks and check for possible errors.

Hello Jorge,

What do you mean by changing the header ?. Would copying config-version values from vmseries FGT and replacing it in configuration file of hardware FGT would work ?

Interfaces type i will make sure before dumping backup from hardware FGT to vmseries FGT.

(I think it's interesting for you to insert blocks and check for possible errors.) What do you mean by this line.

Awaiting response.

I don't have a backup here at the moment. But if I'm not mistaken they are the first 3 lines (if you can put those lines here) . In this case, the idea is to replace these lines with the lines from the backup made in the VM.

Put blocks of information in the VM (via ssh or GUI script assistant). for example, all blocks related to interfaces, manages, rules separately.
