10 Type an IP address the FortiGate unit can use to connect to the TFTP server. The
IP address can be any IP address that is valid for the network the interface is
connected to. Make sure you do not enter the IP address of another device on this
network.

message similar to the following appears:

saving: [D/B/R]
12 Type D.
The FortiGate unit installs the new firmware image and restarts. The installation
might take a few minutes to complete.
Change the internal interface address, if required. You can do this from the CLI
using the following command:
config system interface
edit <interface>
set ip <address_ip4mask>
set allowaccess {ping|https|ssh|telnet|http}
end
After changing the interface address, you can access the FortiGate unit from the
web-based manager and restore the configuration.
Use a USB key to either backup a configuration file or restore a configuration file.
You should always make sure a USB key is properly install before proceeding
since the FortiGate unit must recognize that the key is installed in its USB port.
Note: You can only save VPN certificates if you encrypt the file. Make sure the
configuration encryption is enabled so you can save the VPN certificates with the
configuration file. An encrypted file is ineffective if selected for the USB Auto-Install feature.
To backup configuration using the CLI
1 Log into the CLI.

exec backup config usb <filename>
