Description


This article describes how to recover the FortiGate from not being able to delete the central-management setting because of a GUI message:
 

'Please unregister device from FortiManager first' (GUI).
'Please unregister-device from FortiManager first. object set operator error, -582 discard the setting Command fail. Return code -582' (CLI).

 

Scope

 

FortiGate.

Solution
Investigating this problem. In the meantime this should serve well though:

  • From GUI add 0.0.0.0 as FortiManager IP.
  • It will be logged out from the FortiGate.
  • Log in again.
  • It will be possible to set central management to 'None' without registering.
  • Apply the changes.

 

Additional note:
For FortiManager Cloud, doing the change mentioned will still result in an error:
'Please unregister-device from FortiManager first. object set operator error, -582 discard the setting. Command fail. Return code -582'

 

In this case, un-set the serial number of the FortiManager from the FortiGate:


config system central-management
    unset serial-number
end
