Upgrade information
Use the graceful upgrade information or other firmware upgrade information in these release notes to upgrade your FortiGate-6000 or 7000 system to the latest firmware version with only minimal traffic disruption and to maintain your configuration.
You can also refer to the Upgrade Path Tool (https://docs.fortinet.com/upgrade-tool) in the Fortinet documentation library to find supported upgrade paths for all FortiGate models and firmware versions.
A similar upgrade path tool is also available from Fortinet Support: https://support.fortinet.com.
In some cases, these upgrade path tools may recommend slightly different upgrade paths. If that occurs, the paths provided by both tools are supported and you can use either one.
