Verifying the downgrade
After successfully downgrading to a previous firmware, verify your connections and
settings. If you are unable to connect to the web-based manager, make sure your
administration access settings and internal network IP address are correct. The
downgrade may change your configuration settings to default settings.
Downgrading to a previous firmware through the CLI
When downgrading to a previous firmware, only the following settings are retained:
•
operation mode
•
Interface IP/Management IP
•
route static table
•
DNS settings
•
VDOM parameters/settings
•
admin user account
•
session helpers
•
system accprofiles.
If you have created additional settings in FortiOS 4.0, make sure you back up your
configuration before downgrading. For more information, see
.
The following procedure assumes that you have already downloaded the firmware image
to your management computer.
To downgrade through the CLI
1
Copy the new firmware image file to the root directory of the TFTP server.
2
Start the TFTP server.
3
Log in to the CLI.
4
Enter the following command to ping the computer running the TFTP server:
execute ping <server_ipaddress>
Pinging the computer running the TFTP server verifies that the FortiGate unit and
TFTP server are successfully connected.
5
Enter the following command to copy the firmware image from the TFTP server to the
FortiGate unit:
execute restore image tftp <name_str> <tftp_ipv4>
Where
<name_str>
is the name of the firmware image file and
<tftp_ipv4>
is the
IP address of the TFTP server. For example, if the firmware image file name is
image.out
and the IP address of the TFTP server is
192.168.1.168
, enter:
execute restore image tftp image.out
192.168.1.168
The FortiGate unit responds with the message:
This operation will replace the current firmware version! Do you
want to continue? (y/n)
Caution:
Always back up your configuration before installing a patch release,
upgrading/downgrading, or when resetting to factory defaults.
