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.

Use ? or help to view a description of all of the available commands. Use ? or help with a system command for information on how to use that command. Use exit to exit the CLI.

An administrator's privilege to execute CLI commands is defined in the admin profile. The specific commands that are available to them are configured when creating or editing a profile.
