FG-101E upgrade 6.2.11 > 6.4.11

Hello

 

Anyone with experience out there that has updated their FGs with such a big jump? I have to go from 6.2.5 in steps up to 6.2.11 - then it has me going directly to 6.4.11 per the download tool on Fortinet firmware page.

 

I will perform the upgrade, but just wanted to see if anyone has run into any gotcha's.

 

Thank you...

If you follow the upgrade path tool you should have no issues..

Always make a backup of your config before each upgrade and consider using the backup partition so you can easily revert if needed.
