Hey all
I am looking to disable FIPS mode on a FortiGate 100E, 200E, 500E.
Is it as simple as format, load new firmware, restore config?
Is there anything in the config that needs to be edited out?
Hi @cybervex,
Do you have FIPS certified firmware image installed or just have FIPS-CC enabled? FIPS-CC can be disabled in the CLI, please refer to https://community.fortinet.com/t5/FortiGate/Technical-Tip-How-to-enable-FIPS-CC-mode/ta-p/196629
config system fips-cc
set status disable
end
Regards,
It is as simple as I hoped.
I had a fips version installed. I backed it up. Formatted. Installed a non-fips version. Restored my configuration. I then cleaned up the leftover bits in policies and profiles.
