Reverting a FortiGate configuration

You can use FortiManager to revert the configuration of a FortiGate to a previous revision. The revert operation does not affect the policy package stored in the FortiManager ADOM database.

In order to align the policy information stored in the ADOM database with the reverted FortiGate configuration in the device database, you should perform the following actions after reverting the configuration:

1. Import the configuration from the managed FortiGate to synchronize the policy package stored in the ADOM database.

2. Re-install the policy package from FortiManager.

By importing and reinstalling the policy package, the device database and policies within the ADOM database are synchronized.
