The USB Auto-Install feature automatically updates the FortiGate configuration
file and image file on a system reboot. Also, this feature provides you with an
additional backup if you are unable to save your system settings before shutting
down or rebooting your FortiGate unit.
The following procedures use both the web-based manager and the CLI.
However, it is recommended you use the CLI since the login screen may appear
before the installation is complete. The FortiGate unit may reboot twice if installing
the firmware image and configuration file.
Note: You need an unencrypted configuration file for this feature. Also the default files,
image.out and fgt_system.conf, must be in the root directory.
Note: Make sure FortiOS 3.0MR1 is installed on the FortiGate unit before installing.
