Fortinet 534 FortiWeb 5.0 Patch 6 Administration Guide
CLI Console widget
The CLI Console widget on the dashboard enables you to enter CLI commands through the
web UI, without making a separate Telnet, SSH, or local console connection to access the CLI.
To use the console, first click within the console area. Doing so automatically logs you in using
the same administrator account you used to access the web UI. You can then type commands
into the CLI Console widget. Alternatively, you can copy and paste commands from or into the
console.
The prompt, by default the model number such as FortiWeb-3000C #, contains the host name
of the FortiWeb appliance. To change the host name, see “Changing the FortiWeb appliance’s
host name” on page 519.
For information on available commands, see the FortiWeb CLI Reference.
