Script view

	The tools menu will only be visible if Show Device Manager Tools has been enabled in the administrator settings. See “Configuring global admin settings”.

You can select CLI Script, CLI Script Group, or TCL Script. CLI scripts only allow you to use Fortinet CLI commands in your script. TCL scripts allow you to use TCL scripting language commands which can include CLI commands as well. CLI Script Group is grouping some scripts together that will be run, making it easier to schedule multiple scripts at one time.
