Please assume I' ve already beat myself up, and sympathize with the fact I had to physically relocate my server room and 30 client PC' s due to Tsunami warning, then back... I have accidentally (thougtlessly) disconnected the Internal Interface by clicking on " bring Down Interface" and clicking OK. How can I regain connection to my 60B? 1) is it possible via web interface on the Internal interface? 2) I' m I' m first going to find a connector/cable for the Console interface, If anyone would like to give me usefull intel on how to bring up the interface, I' d be stoked. **** **.\.** Since this is Sunday eve, and I' m most likely the most Western Forti-user, I don' t know if you' ll beat me wading through the manual, but here' s to hope in Hawaii.

Hi... You can go in through the console port. 1) login to the device 2) type ' config system interface' press enter 3) type ' edit internal' 4) type ' set status up' 5) type ' end' This will save the config and hopefully bring it back up

You could also try remotely from the WANx interface if you have access enabled there. (likewise on the DMZ....)
