Manual backup of the configuration to FAMS
FWF60B-CGUS # execute backup config management-station "Backup my config" Running............Config upload request to management station done. |
Manual restore of the FAMS configuration backup to FortiGate
The first step is to determine the revision number that is to be restored, this can be seen from the FAMS portal or obtained from FortiGate CLI as shown below:
FWF60B-CGUS # execute restore config management-station normal 0 Running..Done. |
Once the revision number is known, use the exec restore command with the required revision as shown below:
