Configuring automatic backups

Configuring automatic backups

Starting in FortiOS 7.2.1, you can specify whether your managed FortiSwitch configuration is automatically backed up each time a user logs out or before a system upgrade is started. By default, both options are disabled.

To specify that the managed FortiSwitch unit creates a revision configuration file each time a user logs out:

config switch-controller switch-profile

edit {default | FortiSwitch_profile_name}

set revision-backup-on-logout enable

next

end

To specify that the managed FortiSwitch unit creates a revision configuration file before a system upgrade is started:

config switch-controller switch-profile

edit {default | FortiSwitch_profile_name}

set revision-backup-on-upgrade enable

next

end
