Upgrading the collector
For a collector HA cluster, first upgrade the master and then the slaves. Repeat these steps for each collector:
- Restart each collector, one at a time.
- Log in to the portal using a service provider (administrator) account.
- Select the Devices tab.
- Select the FPC Collectors tab.
- Click the IP address of the collector to open that collector's administrator portal. The administrator portal opens in a new browser tab.
- Log in to the administrator portal. The default user name is
admin
, and there is no default password. - Go to System Settings.
- In the System Information widget, select the Update button beside the Firmware Version.
- In the pop-up dialog, select Choose File and select the collector
.out
file that you downloaded from the Fortinet Customer Service & Support website (https://support.fortinet.com/). - Select OK. The collector will upgrade. After the firmware is upgraded, the system will restart automatically.
