Back up the FortiGate configuration files, logs, or IPS user-defined signatures file to a TFTP or FTP server, USB disk, or a management station. Management stations can either be a FortiManager unit, or FortiGuard Analysis and Management Service.

How to select a configuration for a USB device Article01/16/2024 In this article -->To select a configuration for a USB device, the client driver for the device must choose at least one of the supported configurations and specify the alternate settings of each interface to use. The client driver packages those choices in a select-configuration request and sends the request to the Microsoft-provided USB driver stack, specifically the USB bus driver (USB hub PDO). The USB bus driver selects each interface in the specified configuration and sets up a communication channel, or pipe, to each endpoint within the interface. After the request completes, the client driver receives a handle for the selected configuration, and pipe handles for the endpoints that are defined in the active alternate setting for each interface. The client driver can then use the received handles to change configuration settings and to send I/O read and write requests to a particular endpoint.A client driver sends a select-configuration request in a USB Request Block (URB) of the type URB_FUNCTION_SELECT_CONFIGURATION. The procedure in this topic describes how to use the USBD_SelectConfigUrbAllocateAndBuild routine to build that URB. The routine allocates memory for an URB, formats the URB for a select-configuration request, and returns the address of the URB to the client driver.Alternately, you can allocate an URB structure and then format the URB manuallyComments

2025-03-29Or by calling the UsbBuildSelectConfigurationRequest macro.PrerequisitesStarting in Windows 8, USBD_SelectConfigUrbAllocateAndBuild replaces USBD_CreateConfigurationRequestEx.Before sending a select-configuration request, you must have a USBD handle for your client driver's registration with the USB driver stack. To create a USBD handle call USBD_CreateHandle.Make sure you have obtained the configuration descriptor (USB_CONFIGURATION_DESCRIPTOR structure) of the configuration to select. Typically, you submit an URB of the type URB_FUNCTION_GET_DESCRIPTOR_FROM_DEVICE (see _URB_CONTROL_DESCRIPTOR_REQUEST) to retrieve information about device configuration. For more information, see USB Configuration Descriptors.Step 1: Create an array of USBD_INTERFACE_LIST_ENTRY structuresGet the number of interfaces in the configuration. This information is contained in the bNumInterfaces member of the USB_CONFIGURATION_DESCRIPTOR structure.Create an array of USBD_INTERFACE_LIST_ENTRY structures. The number of elements in the array must be one more than the number of interfaces. Initialize the array by calling RtlZeroMemory.The client driver specifies alternate settings in each interface to enable, in the array of USBD_INTERFACE_LIST_ENTRY structures.The InterfaceDescriptor member of each structure points to the interface descriptor that contains the alternate setting.The Interface member of each structure points to an USBD_INTERFACE_INFORMATION structure that contains pipe information in its Pipes member. Pipes stores information about each endpoint defined in the alternate setting.Obtain an interface descriptor for each interface (or its alternate setting) in the configuration. You can obtain those interface descriptors by calling USBD_ParseConfigurationDescriptorEx.About Function Drivers for a USB Composite Device:If the USB device is a composite device, the configuration is selected by the Microsoft-provided USB Generic Parent Driver (Usbccgp.sys).

2025-04-11Trouble starting your Surface with the bootable USB, you can try booting through Windows. To do this: Insert the USB drive into the USB port, and then select Start > Settings > Update & security > Recovery. Under Advanced startup, select Restart Now. On the Choose an option screen, select Use a device > USB Storage. Configure your Surface to start from a USB drive After your USB drive is set up as a bootable drive with an appropriate operating system on it, you’ll need to set up your Surface to boot from this drive. This requires you to make changes in the UEFI so that the USB drive is the first option. Here's how: Shut down your Surface. After the Surface has turned off, press and hold the volume-up button. With the volume-up button held down, press and release the power button. Continue holding the volume-up button until the Surface or Windows logo no longer appears on the screen. You should now see the Surface UEFI. You'll need to follow specific instructions for your Surface to proceed. Change the boot order You'll need to change the boot order so that your Surface boots from a USB. For newer Surface models, to change the Surface boot configuration: Select Boot configuration. Select USB Storage and drag it to the top of the list. Alternatively, you can swipe left on USB Storage to boot to the device immediately. This will not affect the boot order. Select Exit and then select Restart Now. For Surface Pro 3 and Surface 3, to change the boot configuration: Select Configure Alternate System Boot Order. Do one of the following: Surface Pro 3: Select USB > SSD. Surface 3: Select Network > USB > SSD. Select Exit Setup. Select Yes to save the configuration and restart Surface.
