CLI Reference

system web-service

system web-service

Use this command to configure the rate limit for REST APIs, including the maximum concurrent REST API requests (overall and for individual IP addresses), and how fast the system should perform, in terms of how many requests and responses are processed per second. It also configures connections for FortiMail webmail and per-user quarantines.

Valid value ranges for certain commands vary by FortiMail model.
