Hey Fortinet Forum sages

Is there any possible way to CLI change the built inn guest password length when you have randomize password on?

Is there any command line that can change the password length it creates? 
Looking for anything that can steer me in the right direction.

Dear Rodepolser,

 

There is no option from GUI or CLI to set the number of characters. Can you confirm the software version? 

 

You can check under system > Settings > Password Policy > there you have admin and Ipsec user , do you see guest there. If there is guest then you can apply the password policy otherwise there is no other option.
