Using the CLI Console widget

Using the CLI Console widget

You can use SSH or Telnet to connect to the command line, but if you are already logged into the GUI, you don't need to leave it.

To access the CLI without exiting the GUI, go to Dashboard > Console. If you need to pop the CLI Console out to a window that you can resize and reposition or keep open while going to other places in the GUI, then click Open in New Window.

Command syntax for FortiRecorder is similar to other Fortinet products.
