Source Configuration |
Select the input configuration file or a device. |
|
Target Device (The device needs to be added in advance) |
FortiConverter needs to extract interface or other information of the target device for conversion and import. If the source configuration has VDOM enabled, FortiConverter will enable the VDOM on the target device as well. |
|
Bulk Conversion |
If there are many devices to be converted where all of them are the same model and sharing the same interface in conversion, then the bulk conversion can convert all of them at once. Switch to the bulk conversion mode, add each input configuration, and select a target device to perform the bulk conversion. |

Conversion Options |
|
|
Append new object to avoid overwriting existing one |
Enable this option to append configurations such as interface, route, Central-Nat table and DHCP Server into the pre-exist configuration on the device. |
|
Migrate device Hostname and Alias |
Enable this option to migrate your hostname and alias in config system global setting. Note that if the hostname in source config is the Serial Number, it’ll be skipped by converter even if this option is enabled. |
