Hi everyone,
I've downloaded FGT_120G-v7.0.17.M-build7572-FORTINET.out, and after I upload it to my appliance, it shows an incorrect build number. I Uploaded a screenshot. Can anyone help

Probably just merged into the GA version 0682 from this version. So 7572=0682.
If you don't like it, you should go to 7.2.11, which should have show the same build1740 and which has been merged to GA some time ago.

The same as mine.

This is a known issue 1186266.

I experienced the same issue with the build number display after uploading the firmware. However, the upgrade process itself completed normally — there were no errors shown on the console, and the system upgraded successfully without any problems.

So @HarryTran, which is the case? I'm asking since it's not published in the release notes, at least yet.
1) It was indeed merged to GA and should be listed as build0682 in the image file name

2) It's still a special build and should be shown as build7572 inside of the image
I'm guessing 2) like an "oops" on Dev/QA side.
