I had shutdown FortiWiFi 80CM for Server Room Maintenance. after that, I had power on FortiWiFi 80CM but cannot boot up. I try to upload a new firmware via TFTP. It can boot up and working normal. but I try to console to FW80CM. It shows error as below

    This sounds like a hardware error - so you should open a Support ticket.

     

    On the smaller FGTs, the internal flash disk often developed hw errors over time. Especially, if the disk was used for logging. Newer models are equipped with SSDs which can stand the frequent I/Os.
