Supported vendors & configuration objects

FortiConverter can translate configurations from the following vendors and models.

  • In some cases, FortiConverter can't translate some parts of the configuration because of dependencies or unsupported syntax and you must manually convert them.
  • If the number of objects exceeds the maximum valid length for FortiGate or FortiManager, FortiConverter trims them.

Unless noted as an exception below, conversions only support IPv4 unicast policy.

FortiGate configuration can be converted based on the version of the target FortiGate device (We suggest to migrate to FortiOS 6.0 and above).

However, note that

  • Older features might be deprecated and may not be fully converted over.
  • The review is necessary. After importing the converted configuration, any CLI commands that have not successfully imported can be reviewed on the page.
