Is it possible to integrate the config backup which can be used as a startup config ? currently it appears that it is only supported for Cisco devices? 
Any plans on supporting Fortigate firewells?

Re: startup config for Fortigate Devices
Only way I think this could work would be to virtualize a usb disk and use the auto configuration file (fgt_system.conf). Unfortunately I have found no support for creating a virtual usb device.  Would love the feature though.

Re: startup config for Fortigate Devices
Hi,
I was able to simulate a usb stick, but now i'm stuck because i can't mount the 'image' on several device in same time.

After mounting the usb on the Fortigate, you can :
* execute backup config usb MyConfig.cfg
* execute restore config usb MyConfig.cfg

Re: startup config for Fortigate Devices
What about running sftp backup/restore by running the command via config script
