Il s’agit d’un extrait de la documentation officielle de chez Fortigate que je garde au chaud 🙂

Brief overview:

  1. Console in
  2. get SN from boot (FG*********)
  3. boot/reboot device
  4. login within 15 seconds

To get into CLI:

Serial line to connect to COM1 (or, if your computer has multiple serial ports, the name of the connected serial port)
Speed (baud) 9600
Data bits 8
Stop bits 1
Parity None
Flow control None

The credentials for your CLI will be:

  • user: maintainer
  • pass: bcpb***************** (your serial number)

For example:

if your SN is FG100D3G13802616

your password for maintainer will be bcpbFG100D3G13802616

How to reset

When you are logged in, type the following to perform a reset:

exec factoryreset

It will ask you to confirm, and then it will reboot.

 

The system name of mine had changed to reflect the serial number when the initial factory image booted up.
