CLI script action

CLI scripts can be run when an automation stitch is triggered. The scripts can be manually entered or uploaded as a file.

In this example, in the event of an application issue such as when a real server or virtual server is down, FortiADC will use the CLI script to add a script to the relevant virtual server and redirect the user to a second data center.

  1. Go to Security Fabric > Automation.
  2. Click Create New.
  3. Enter a name for the stitch.

  5. Select the trigger System Events.
  6. Select the system events that will trigger the action.
