FortiGate Configuration Migration
All FortiGate to FortiGate configurations are fully supported with the exceptions of the following:
- The upgrades for managed software or external devices (such as FortiAP, FortiToken, FortiClient EMS, FortiManager, FortiSwitch) are not supported.
- Merging new configurations to existing configurations is currently not supported.
- Device Conversions from non-vdom mode to vdom mode or vice versa are currently not supported.
- Hardware switches will be converted to software switches where the new target device does not support the hardware switch.
- For configuration of new feature sets (which are currently not in the existing configuration), please reach out to TAC support for assistance.
- For security purposes, the default admin account password will be reset. In general, encrypted secret data, credentials, e.g., VPN pre-shared keys, certificates, local users, and admin passwords, will remain valid after cross model migration as long as the FOS version is above 5.6.
- Legacy device migrations from 4.0 are fully supported. For 3.x there could be instances where specific sections of the configuration may not be able to be migrated.
