I have a Fortigate60. I want to reset it, but I can not find the physical reset button.

Thank you in advance for any information.

    According to the quick start guide these older fgts do not have reset buttons.  If you need to reset it and do not have access to GUI, you'll likely need to connect to the console port using a serial (or serial to USB) cable and use the "backdoor" maintainer access

    it's on the back of the Fortigate 60e next to the power input. Use a small pin to reset the device. 

     

    Admin: On the 60e but not on the 60.

    60 as in no letter after it? Wow, museum piece for sure. You'll need the 9 pin D connector for that sucker.
