How to set 20C into Transparent mode?

I am unable to set my FWF-20C-ADSL, v5.2.4 into Transparent mode - the command system setting's opmode (Operation Mode) doesn't exist.

 

FW20CA3X13000939 # show full-configuration system settings | grep opmode

FW20CA3X13000939 #

but

FW20CA3X13000939 # get system status | grep Mode Operation Mode: NAT

According to KB Technical Tip: Activate Transparent Mode on FortiGate 20C and FortiGate 30D, using the CLI it did exist in FortiOS firmware version 5.0 Patch 6.

 

Anyone can shed some light?

    Changing mode is at:

     

    config system setting

        set opmode transparent

        ...

    end

    Perhaps I should have spelled it out:

     

    FW20CA3X13000939 # config system setting FW20CA3X13000939 (settings) #  set opmode transparent command parse error before 'opmode' Command fail. Return code -61

    Oh, right ADSL models for 20C only supports NAT mode.

    Why? Given that system global's wan toggle allows definition of a WAN port, this ADSL model-specifc limitation is unnecessary.
