Introduction

The FortiDeceptor CLI (Command Line Interface) is available when connecting to the FortiDeceptor via console or by using an SSH or TELNET client. These services must be enabled on the port1 interface.

Use CLI commands for initial device configuration and troubleshooting. CLI commands are case-sensitive. Some commands are specific to hardware or VM devices.

Administrator privileges for executing CLI commands are defined in the admin profile. The commands available to an administrator are configured during profile creation or modification.
