Dear Team,

 

We are facing the issue with retrieve the configuration from fortigate firewall to fortimanager.

 

1. Run the script from fortimanager to direct managed firewall. (Once the script run whatever the configuration ran in the firewall should reflect in fortimanager, but here manual retrieve is required to reflect, Auto retrieval not working.


2. The script contains, Create vlan, assign the vlan to zone, create dhcp using vlan...etc.

 

3. When we check the configuration after the script in fortimanager, its showing as invalid. After manual retrieval only the configuration is visible.

 

Is there any command available in fortimanager to view via CLI why auto retrieve not working.

 

There is a command in fortigate diagnose debug cli8 ---> diagnose debug enable.

Like this any command available please share with us.

 

Note: Fortimanager and fortigate fir

 

 

Thanks,

 

Sivanathan T

Hi ,

 

You can check where the script fails by going inside the adom

System settings > Task Monitor > Your failed script execution task > View details > View Script Execution Result

Hi,

If you want your script configuration to be applied on device database you should apply your configurationn from CLI templates not scripts.This way you devices will be syncronised , the configuration you applied through script are not written on device database on fortimanager
