Technical Tip: How to update normalized interface information via a script

Consider the following example scenario:

Currently, FortiManager has 2 normalized interfaces:

• kentest_LAN.
• kentest_WAN.

In FortiManager, run CLI commands to view the CLI configuration:

execute fmpolicy print-adom-object <ADOM ID> <Category ID> <Dynamic Interface name>

• ADOM ID = 181, ADOM_74
• Category ID = 800, 'dynamic interface'
• Dynamic Interface name = kentest_LAN & kentest_WAN

execute fmpolicy print-adom-object 181 800 kentest_LAN
execute fmpolicy print-adom-object 181 800 kentest_WAN

Example result below:

After copying the CLI syntax from FortiManager, create a new script and add new information. 

In FortiManager, verify the normalized interface after running the script successfully.

Example FortiManager script information:

config dynamic interface
    edit "kentest_LAN"
        set description "123"
        set default-mapping enable
        set defmap-intf "kentest_LAN"
            config dynamic_mapping
                edit "rusa-kvm29"-"vdomA"
                    set local-intf "port7"
                next
                edit "rusa-kvm29"-"vdomB"
                    set local-intf "port9"
                next

                # Added new information <----- New information starts.
                edit "rusa-kvm29"-"root" 
                    set local-intf "port5" 
                next <----- New information ends.

            end

        next

    end

config dynamic interface
    edit "kentest_WAN"
        set default-mapping enable
        set defmap-intf "kentest_WAN"
            config dynamic_mapping
                edit "rusa-kvm29"-"vdomA"
                    set local-intf "port8"
                next
                edit "rusa-kvm29"-"vdomB"
                    set local-intf "port10"
                next

                # Added new information <----- New information starts.
                edit "rusa-kvm29"-"root" 
                    set local-intf "port6"
                next <----- New information ends.

            end

        next

    end
