Connection
After installing the appropriate USB to Serial Driver, plug in your USB to Serial device and then check to see if it is properly recognized.
Open Terminal ~$ ls /dev/cu.* /dev/cu.Bluetooth-Incoming-Port /dev/cu.KeySerial1 /dev/cu.Bluetooth-Modem /dev/cu.USA19Hfa13P1.1
Look for something similar to USB, Serial, or the name of your device. In the case above, the correct selection is
/dev/cu.USA19Hfa13P1.1
Start the connection with:
~$ screen /dev/cu.USA19Hfa13P1.1 9600 (screen device baudrate)
You may have to hit enter before the FGT login prompt appears
At this point you should see the following:
FGT-602906515411 login:
Disconnecting
If you disconnect by closing the terminal window, you'll need to unplug the USB to serial device and reconnect it as the hardware will still be dedicated to the old session.
Windows
Lost Admin Password
Follow the steps to connect (Mac) as listed above.
Once connected and at the login screen, plug the power cable on the Fortigate Firewall and wait (10) seconds, then plug it back in. You should see something like this:
