Scheduled/Daily Reboot of FortiGate

Recently I had to do late night restart of a Fortigate and was looking for “Reload in…”
I found it, but in Fortigate it is a little different.
It’s called Daily Restart, and if you want to use it once you need to remember to remove this command.

config system global
set daily-restart enable
set restart time 04:00
end

Now the FortiGate is configured to reboot at 4 AM (System Time).
Don’t forget to update the system clock (Use NTP, Always keeps it synced)
