Fortinet FortiGate FG-80C Manuel utilisateur
Description of Issue
Due to an incorrect partition of the flash storage device, the FortiGate 80C may fail to boot-up. The
flash disk capacity should be 7640MB in size, devices that report a flash disk size of 7636MB have a
hidden partition (4MB) which may prevent the FortiGate from booting up if it attempts to locate the
operating system image in this partition.
The FortiGate models that may be affected by this issue are as follows:
FG-80C (PN: P05403-05-xx or higher)
FG-80CM (PN: P05446-05-xx or higher)
FW-80CM (PN: P05405-06-xx or higher)
To identify the part number (PN) of a specific unit, either;
1) Check the label on the bottom of the unit
or
2) Use the “get system status” command from the CLI
The part number of a device can be identified using the following CLI command:
FGT80C3900000000 # get system status
*************
Serial-Number: FGT80C3900000000
*************
System Part-Number: P05403-05
If your FortiGate is within the affected part number range you can verify the flash disk size to know if
it is correct or if there is a hidden partition that may cause the device to fail to boot-up. Upon boot-
up the flash size may be reported
Boot up, boot device capacity: 4MB --- Incorrect, the device will not boot
Boot up, boot device capacity: 7636MB --- Incorrect
Boot up, boot device capacity: 7640MB --- Correct
Resolution
This issue can be corrected and prevented from occurring by re-formatting the flash file system and
removing the hidden partition. This operation will take approximately 10 minutes to perform,
FortiGate console access and a local TFTP server are required, the basic procedure is similar to
loading an HQIP test image, during the operation the device will be out of service.
Following are the detailed steps and procedures required to perform the re-formatting, the main
components required for these upgrade steps are:
• Console access to the FortiGate
• TFTP server connected to port internal1 of the FG80C
• Disk format image
• Desired FortiOS image
Instruction Steps
Ensure configuration back-ups are taken before any format procedures are started.
1) Download the required format images
Depending upon the hardware model type the following format images will be required:
FortiGate FG80C - FGT_80C-FORMAT.3.0.0.1001.out
FortiGate FG80CM - FGT_80CM-FORMAT.3.0.0.1012.out
FortiWiFi FW80CM - FWF_80CM-FORMAT.3.0.0.1001.out
The images may be downloaded from:
ftp://ftp-temp:r3triev3@support.fortinet.com/CustomerCare/FGT_80C-FORMAT.3.0.0.1001.out
ftp://ftp-temp:r3triev3@support.fortinet.com/CustomerCare/FGT_80CM-FORMAT.3.0.0.1012.out
ftp://ftp-temp:r3triev3@support.fortinet.com/CustomerCare/FWF_80CM-FORMAT.3.0.0.1001.out
2) Set-up a TFTP server for image upload
A suggested TFTP server is available from solar winds, others may also work correctly:
http://www.solarwinds.net/Tools/Free_tools/TFTP_Server/download.htm
a) Save the image to the TFTP root folder, example as follows:
C:\TFTP-Root\ FGT_80C-FORMAT.3.0.0.1001.out
b) Save the desired FortiOS image to the root folder, example as follows:
C:\TFTP-Root\ FGT_80C-v400-build0656-FORTINET.out
Any external USB drive must be removed from the USB port, otherwise the open-card program may
fail to function properly!

sliceId=1&docTypeID=DT_KCARTICLE_1_1
3) Load pre-format image
a) When the download completes, the console displays a message similar to:
Save as Default firmware/Run image without saving:[D/B/R]
b) Press R.
c) The system will start and open card mode selection menu will appear:
Opencard Mode Selection Menu:
[1] Pre-Format
[2] F1-Format
[3] GetInfo
d) Enter selection 1 for pre-format
e) Upon completion “Preformat succeeded” will be displayed
Below is a sample console output for the pre-format image loading when following the above steps:
