Using the CLI console for managed devices

Device Manager : Using the CLI console for managed devices

You can access the CLI commands of the managed devices through the CLI Console on the System Settings Dashboard. To use the CLI, you connect via Telnet or SSH.


	To connect to a device using Telnet or SSH, those methods of access must be enabled on the interface of the device connected to the FortiManager system. If they are not enabled, go the device and enable them before connecting via CLI.
