Can not enable telnet on Fortiweb - Parsing error at 'telnet'

[anhnlq]

Hi you guys,

I'm using Fortiweb v6.4.2 build1475 (GA) - VMWare Image. I tried to enable telnet via cli, however It occured error like:

Parsing error at 'telnet'. err=1

Command fail. CLI parsing error.

I login by local admin user (prof_admin). I read docs and realize telnet does not allow in fips-cc mode. I check it and found it does not enable, I also tried to disable it but maybe it does not have effective.

The references below is user guide that I read:

- CLI Reference | FortiWeb 6.4.2 | Fortinet Documentation Library

- CLI Reference | FortiWeb 6.4.2 | Fortinet Documentation Library

Do you have any ideas for this issue?

@anhnlq This seems to be a doc bug. Please use the command seen in the screenshot.

The syntax of the command is

execute telnettest IP:Port

I also thought this was a docs bug. Thanks @ddsouza_FTNT
