FortiOS 6.0.0 upgrade

has anybody tried upgrading to v6.0.0build76 from 5.6.3build1547? the unit says the path is unsupported, just wondering if anybody had tried it.
-
just to clarify, the unit i have is on the list of supported hardware for 6.0.0build76

Don't have any in the wild anymore. Can you upgrade 5.6.3 to something between it and 6.0?
That might get you there in a supported path.
-
Fortinet seems to say it is supported
https://docs.fortinet.com/uploaded/files/4328/fortios-v6.0.0-release-notes.pdf -
@jaredbusch 5.6.3 is the latest in that branch
-
@dbeato when i use the upgrade path tool it gives me a 5 version step downgrade then upgrade path. the downgrade notes say that i could lose configuration entries, so not ideal.

Yes, if you read the releases noted it is related to VLANs configuration.

Keep us posted with if you updated, I have FGT90D will update after a while if nothing major pops up.
-
@emad-r still shy of it yet
-
abit unrelated but have you ever noticed that FG unit deletes specific IPv4 rule each 1 or 2 months ?
And F you like it ddid to me today, and not any rule it is the rule I placed for manager that want to access FB and youtube so they get really pissed
-
@emad-r no, mine seems to be stable. some earlier firmwares seem to have some issues where internet access would get progressively slower and eventually need a reboot, but this version seems to be ok.

update - the upgrade path tool now shows a direct 1 step upgrade from 5.6.3 to 6.0.0 and the upgrade page on the router now shows no warning. i think i will try an update this evening.
