Hi Engineers, What is the command in CLI to refresh the web filter features? Because I' m experiencing that after configuring webfilter on the CLI It didn' t display on Graphical User Interface. Regards Aaron

Try either refreshing the GUI page or clearing your browser cache. If you still can not see your changes in the GUI, go back in the CLI and review the changes you have made for any errors. Alternately, load a non-cryptic backup of the config into a text editor and edit/view your changes that way. Be careful when making changes via the CLI, especially if you are entering firewall object/names -- The GUI may have hard time displaying firewall/object names with space chars or other non-standard char codes in them.

This may be a dumb question, but do you mean that after creating a second profile where before you only had one, that you cannot view it in the GUI? Or that, after making a change to an existing profile, you can no longer see it in the GUI? If you can' t see multiple profiles (try A/V or some of the others as well), you will need to enable Multiple UTM Profiles under System > Config > Features as of OS v5.0. The ability to work with more than ' default' is turned off by, well...default.

Hello Engineers, I apologize for not emphasizing the questions. Here is the scenario. I created a profile in web filtering via CLI and after creating the profile via CLI I go to graphical user interface of the fortigate and I noticed that It didn' t display the profile that I created in the CLI. So my question is that what is the command to refresh just for the web filtering features. Regards Aaron

Hey... I suggest you try Chris' suggestion.... If you don' t see more than one profile in the GUI then turn on multiple profiles.

Bromont and Chris McMullan are referring to this setting...

Hi Engineers, After creating multiple profiles in GUI is that I can' t see them on CLI and vise versa as well. Then I tried also in CLI to create profile but same as the GUI. It didn' t show up! I already try reboot the device several times but no luck! at all :(
