Pulling firmware images from FortiGate

[sebaspla]

Hi community!

I'm interested in knowing if there is a way to download an installed firmware image from a FortiGate device through any transfer protocol such as SCP, FTP, TFTP, etc. ?

According to this article we can actually push .out firmware images to a device via SCP with the command 

scp firmware.out admin@<IP>:fgt-image 

What I am looking for is exactly the opposite. Is it possible?

Thanks!

Hello,

To my knowledge, no, because it is not needed. I don't see any scenario where you need to download image from the device. You can't even download image locally to USB for example.
