Backing up your configuration to a USB key
If your FortiGate unit has a USB port, you can back up your current configuration to a USB
key. When backing up a configuration file to a USB key, verify that the USB key is
formatted as a FAT16 disk. The FAT16 format is the only supported partition type. For
more information, see
“Formatting USB Disks” on page 261 .
Before proceeding, ensure that the USB key is inserted in the FortiGate unit’s USB port.
To back up your configuration to the USB key
1 Go to System > Maintenance > Backup & Restore .
2 Select USB Disk from Backup configuration to list.
If you want to encrypt your configuration file to save VPN certificates, select the
Encrypt configuration file check box, enter a password, and then enter it again to
confirm.
3 Select Backup .
After successfully backing up your configuration file, either from the CLI or the web-based
manager, proceed with upgrading to FortiOS 4.0.
