The other day, I had lost connectivity to the Fortigate 50B that I had set up. Luckily, I had the console cable and a machine with a serial port that I could use. I was able to get into the CLI using that console cable and use these commands to set the device back to factory defaults:
Connect with a terminal program (like hyperterminal or putty)
connect with these settings:
8 bits
no parity
1 stop bit
9600 baud (the FortiGate-300 uses 115,000 baud)
Flow Control = None
log in as admin (perhaps with no password - perhaps with a password you set)
run this from the CLI:
exec factoryreset
