CLI Reference

reboot

reboot

Use this command to restart the FortiWeb appliance.

To use this command, your administrator account’s access control profile must have either w or rw permission to the mntgrp area. For details, see Permissions.

Syntax

execute reboot

Example

This example shows the reboot command in action.

execute reboot


The CLI displays the following:

This operation will reboot the system !

Do you want to continue? (y/n)


After you enter y (yes), the CLI displays the following:

System is rebooting...


If you are connected to the CLI through a local console, the CLI displays messages while the reboot is occurring.

If you are connected to the CLI through the network, the CLI will not display any notification while the reboot is occurring, as this occurs after the network interfaces have been shut down. Instead, you may notice that the connection is terminated. Time required by the reboot varies by many factors, such as whether or not hard disk verification is required, but may be several minutes.
