clone <table> | Clone (or make a copy of) a table from the current object. For example, in config firewall policy, you could enter the following command to clone security policy 27 to create security policy 30: clone 27 to 39 In config antivirus profile, you could enter the following command to clone an antivirus profile named av_pro_1 to create a new antivirus profile named av_pro_2: clone av_pro_1 to av_pro_2 clone may not be available for all tables. |
delete <table> | Remove a table from the current object. For example, in config system admin, you could delete an administrator account named newadmin by typing delete newadmin and pressing Enter. This deletes newadmin and all its fields, such as newadmin’s first-name and email-address. delete is only available within objects containing tables. |
edit <table> | Create or edit a table in the current object. For example, in config system admin: • edit the settings for the default admin administrator account by typing edit admin. • add a new administrator account with the name newadmin and edit newadmin‘s settings by typing edit newadmin. edit is an interactive sub-command: further sub-commands are available from within edit. edit changes the prompt to reflect the table you are currently editing. edit is only available within objects containing tables. In objects such as security policies, <table> is a sequence number. To create a new entry without the risk of overwriting an existing one, enter edit 0. The CLI initially confirms the creation of entry 0, but assigns the next unused number after you finish editing and enter end. |
end | Save the changes to the current object and exit the config command. This returns you to the top-level command prompt. |
get | List the configuration of the current object or table. • In objects, get lists the table names (if present), or fields and their values. • In a table, get lists the fields and their values. For more information on get commands, see the CLI Reference. |
purge | Remove all tables in the current object. For example, in config forensic user, you could type get to see the list of user names, then type purge and then y to confirm that you want to delete all users. purge is only available for objects containing tables. Caution: Back up the FortiGate unit before performing a purge. purge cannot be undone. To restore purged tables, the configuration must be restored from a backup. Caution: Do not purge system interface or system admin tables. purge does not provide default tables. This can result in being unable to connect or log in, requiring the FortiGate unit to be formatted and restored. |
