You can add an extra option to the reset command to keep certain configurations constant:
all-settings
resets all settings.all-except-ip
keeps the public IP constantall-except-ssh
keeps the ssh public key constant.all-except-ip-ssh
keeps the ssh public key and public IP constant.

command in the CLI Reference in the Fortinet Doc Library..
