Description
This article describes how to create firewall objects in FortiManager ADOM database with scripts. For this demonstration, firewall address will be created .
Solution
1) Enable scripts under FortiManager admin settings (System Settings -> Admin -> Admin Settings -> Display Options on GUI, enable 'Show Scripts' and save the change.
2) Create a new script and set the script to run on Policy Package or ADOM database (Device Manager -> Script, select 'Create New Script').
The script details are similar to the FortiOS CLI syntax/command in which the user can enter on the local FortiGate.
User is advised to be familiar with FortiOS CLI syntax/command.
When creating a script that is set to run on the FortiManager ADOM Database, there is no need to specify the VDOM within the script details, e.g. # config vdom.
Sample script:
# config firewall addres
edit ” test-address-1″
set subnet 10.1.1.1 255.255.255.0
set color 1
next
edit “test-address-2”
set subnet 10.2.2.2 255.255.255.0
set associated-interface “port2”
next
end
3) Once the script is created, run the script against the default value and the firewall objects will be created accordingly under Policy & Objects -> Object Configurations -> Firewall Objects -> Addresses).
