[eberte2001]

Hello all,

Please, anyone know how to export rulebase from Fortigate (not FortiManager) to html or xls?

I need also export IP address, URLs and services added in the firewall.

Thank you!!!!

Hello,

You may consider to download FortiGate configuration file and parse it with notepad/python scripts.

Hi,

there is no built-in tool/way to export rulebase/objects directly into XLS/CSV/etc formats. You can:

• Export configuration - it is a structured text file, so it can be parsed with scripts quite easily
• Get needed info by using Fortigate API and scripting of some kind.
• (Probably) Use some web scraping software to download Fortigate web gui page of interest.
