Fortinet 124E Firmware Upgrade

Hello,

Is there way to upgrade or downgrade a firmware on 124E Model network switch without having the switch configured on the network/internet? Like via serial or usb cables, TeraTerm or PuTTY etc…? If yes, please share a procedure or steps ASAP?

 

Any help is greatly appreciated.

I was able to figure it out.  I needed to change network port to 16 under Forti Configuration since that's where the CAT6 is connected.
