Rene Neumann demonstrates how ZPE Systems Netbox Network Automation Blueprint can help recover a failed FortiGate firewall upgrade. After introducing the environment for the demo, Rene shows how Netbox can be used as a source of truth to easily keep data current, update Nodegrid details, and update device details using a console connection. He then uses edge native automation to stage a firmware update, test the results and implement automatic recovery.

Presented by Rene Neumann, Director of Solution Engineering, ZPE Systems.
