Unable to upgrade Fortigate Firmware to 7.2.4
I am currently experiencing issues while attempting to upgrade the Fortigate firmware to version 7.2.4. The upgrade is failing both through the GUI and TFTP methods. The original firmware version is 7.0.10. However, when attempting to upgrade to random version 7.2.6 or downgrade to version 6.4.14, I can successfully perform the upgrade or downgrade using TFTP. If anyone has encountered the same issue and has found a solution, please let me know. The model of the Fortigate is 80F. I wanted to upgrade to 7.2.4
