System Maintenance
This section describes how to maintain your system configuration as well as how to enable
and update FDN services. This section also explains the types of FDN services that are
available for your FortiGate unit.
If you enable virtual domains (VDOMs) on the FortiGate unit, system maintenance is
configured globally for the entire FortiGate unit. For more information, see
“Using virtual
domains” on page 103 .
This section includes the following topics:
• About the Maintenance menu
• Managing configuration revisions
• Using script files
• Configuring FortiGuard Services
• Troubleshooting FDN connectivity
• Updating antivirus and attack definitions
• Enabling push updates
• Adding VDOM Licenses
About the Maintenance menu
The maintenance menu provides help with maintaining and managing firmware,
configuration revisions, script files, and FortiGuard subscription-based services. From this
menu, you can upgrade or downgrade the firmware, view historical backups of
configuration files, or update FortiGuard services.
The maintenance menu has the following tabs:
• Backup & Restore - allows you to back up and restore your system configuration file,
remotely upgrade firmware, and import CLI commands.
• Revision Control - displays all system configuration backups with the date and time of
when they were backed up. Before you can use revision control, a Central
Management server must be configured and enabled.
• Scripts - displays script history execution and provides a way to upload script files to
the FortiGuard Analysis and Management Service portal web site
• FortiGuard - displays all FDN subscription services, such as antivirus and IPS
definitions as well as the FortiGuard Analysis and Management Service. This tab also
provides configuration options for antivirus, IPS, web filtering, and antispam services.
• License - allows you to increase the maximum number of VDOMs (on some FortiGate
models).
When backing up the system configuration, web content files and spam filtering files are
also included. You can save the configuration to the management computer or to a USB
disk if your FortiGate unit includes a USB port (see
“Formatting USB Disks” on page 261 ).
You can also restore the system configuration from previously downloaded backup files in
the
Backup & Restore menu.
