I am in the process of moving from a SonicWall to a Fortigate 1000. Is there a way to import configurations into the Fortigate? If so, are there configuration templates?

The FortiConverter claims to be able to convert from SonicWall, but it costs additional licensing fees

Honestly I would do it by hand, that way you get rid of the old useless stuff. Only migrate what you actually need.

Thank you for the response. Translating the SonicWall configuration over to Fortigate is the tough part. Because the SonicWall is Zone based and the Fortigate is port based, there are challenges.

Actually you can create zones (containing Interfaces) on the FortiGate aswell
