    Installing policy packages and device settings

    Installing policy packages and device settings

    You can use the Install Wizard to install policy packages and device settings to one or more FortiGate devices, including any device-specific settings for the devices associated with that package.

    To use the Install Wizard to install policy packages and device settings:
    1. If using ADOMs, ensure that you are in the correct ADOM.
    2. Go to Device Manager > Device & Groups.
    3. In the toolbar, select Install Wizard or Install > Install Wizard.
    4. Select Install Policy Package & Device Settings and specify the policy package and other parameters. Click Next.

      Policy Package

      Select the policy package from the dropdown list.

      Install Comments

      Type an optional comment.

      Create ADOM Revision

      Select the checkbox to create an ADOM revision.

      Revision Name

      Type the revision name.

      Revision Comments

      Type an optional comment.

      Schedule Install

      Select the checkbox to schedule the installation.

      Date

      Click the date field and select the date for the installation in the calendar pop-up.

      Time

      Select the hour and minute from the dropdown lists.

    5. On the next page, select one or more devices or groups to install, and click Next.

      The select devices are validated. Validation includes validating the policy and object, the interface, and installation preparation. Devices with validation errors are skipped for installation. The validation results are displayed.

      If enabled, a policy consistency check will be performed and the results will be available (see Perform a policy consistency check).

    6. (Optional) Click the Install Preview button to view a preview of the installation. You can view multiple devices at the same time.
      1. Click Download to download a text file of the installation preview details.
      2. Select a device from the Assigned Devices dropdown menu to preview the installation on the chosen device.

    7. (Optional) Click the Policy Package Diff button to view the differences between the current policy and the policy in the device. See also Viewing a policy package diff.
    8. When validation is complete, click Install or Schedule Install (if you selected Schedule Install).

      FortiManager displays the status of the installation and then lists the devices onto which the settings were installed and any errors or warning that occurred during the installation process.

    9. Click Finish to close the wizard.
