FortiClient - PSK lost

[DJninjaNZ]

Hi Fortinet Community

v6.4.9 -  #fortigate

v6.4.8 -  FortiManager 

We have had a FortiClient set up in the past which we have lost the PSK to as it appears to have been manually changed and not recorded. We have a backup conf of the VPN to re-apply so it can still be used (1 connection), but this does not work for clients with multiple VPN connections.

Is there a way to recover this key or will we need to resort to resetting it?

Thanks

Hello,

Greetings!

Unfortunately, there is no option/way to recover the lost PSK key. They need to be manually re-entered on both the sides.

Have a nice day.

Cheers!

You can copy the ENC key to a PSK of an SSID and view it there.
