Installing FortiGate-5005-DIST firmware

Upgrading I/O module firmware

You also install FortiGate-5005FA2 DIST firmware on the primary I/O module. The
primary I/O module synchronizes this firmware to all FortiGate-5005FA2 modules.
This happens even if the FortiGate-5005FA2 modules are running newer firmware
versions. Also, if different FortiGate-5005FA2 modules are running different
firmware versions, the system synchronizes them all to run the worker firmware
version installed on the primary I/O module.
FortiController-5208 modules are shipped with FortiController-5208 and
FortiGate-5005FA2 firmware installed. So, as you are installing your
FortiGate-5005-DIST hardware, the system synchronizes all firmware to the
versions installed on the primary I/O module.
If the FortiGate-5005FA2 firmware is missing from the primary I/O module, the
FortiGate-5005FA2 modules will keep running their current firmware versions until
you install FortiGate-5005FA2 worker module firmware on the primary I/O module.
You can view the current FortiController-5208 and FortiGate-5005FA2 firmware
versions installed on the primary I/O module from the primary I/O module CLI or
web-based manager.
