Restoring your configuration

5 Enter the following command to copy the backed -up configuration file to restore the

file on the FortiGate unit:

execute restore allconfig <name_str> <tftp_ipv4> <passwrd>

Where <name_str> is the name of the backed up configuration file and

<tftp_ipv4> is the IP address of the TFTP server and <passwrd> is the password

you entered when you backed up your configuration settings. For example, if the

backed up configuration file is confall and the IP address of the TFTP server is

192.168.1.168 and the password is ghrffdt123:

execute restore allconfig confall 192.168.1.168 ghrffdt123

The FortiGate unit responds with the message:

This operation will overwrite the current settings and the

system will reboot!

Do you want to continue? (y/n)

The FortiGate unit uploads the backed up configuration file. After the file uploads, a

message, similar to the following, is displayed:

Getting file confall from tftp server 192.168.1.168

Restoring files...

All done. Rebooting...

This may take a few minutes.

Use the CLI show shell command to verify your settings are restored, or log in to the

web-based manager.
