FortiGate Revision Config

[johnlloyd_13]

hi,

i have an upcoming change window and just would like to confirm the 'revision' function in FG.

1) if i click on configuration > revisions > save, this will create a backup config that is local in the device?

2) i use VDOMs, so does the config include the all VDOM? i.e. 'global', 'root' and others?

3) how can i view the full content on the revision config? is there a CLI command I could use?

4) if i need to revert the config using the CLI, the 'latest' config would be the most bottom revision id? would this be revision 27?

(global) # exec revision list config

Hi

1. Yes it is stored locally on your FortiGate
2. Tried with to save the revision with a super-admin user and I confirm it contains all VDOMs
3. I couldn't find how to show the content in CLI. It seems available on GUI only
4. That's right, the latest is the bottom-most one
