Question

Fortimanager CLI Template error

Hello there,

 

I created a CLI template to generate CSRs on Fgt units as follows:

 

execute vpn certificate local generate rsa $(y) 4096 10.$(y).0.1 DO STI STI TEST SEG b@domain.com IP:10.$(y).0.1,DNS:s$(y).x.org,DNS:s$(y).x.org x/app/cert/scep/ password

 

Where $(y) is a meta variable for branch ids, but the result is error: "-999 - invalid value - syntax error". If i input the same script substituting the meta variable with the branch id directly on the units console it works just fine.

 

Appreciate any help,

BoddenBF.

You should be able to validate the CLI Template and preview what it pushes to the device by following this guide: https://docs.fortinet.com/document/fortimanager/7.2.0/new-features/260251/improved-cli-templates-with-validation-and-preview-functions
If the validation succeeds, please check the preview and post the output here.

    Thanks for replying. The validation is successful, all variable mappings are set. The preview shows the same script i input manually on the units:

     

    execute vpn certificate local generate rsa Y 4096 10.Y.0.1 DO STI STI TEST SEG b@domain.com IP:10.Y.0.1,DNS:sY.dyndns.org,DNS:s3Y.dyndns.org x/app/cert/scep/ pass
