Description This article explains how to combine multiple commands into a CLI alias. Solution Multiple commands can be supported under a single command alias defined in the CLI:
# config system alias
(alias) # edit alias_test <----- Alias name
# set command <----- Input string value. Make sure to use the complete command(s) in quotes.
For example:
(alias) # edit alias_test (alias_test) # set command 'get system status > get system performance status’ (alias) # end
To use more commands, after typing the first command, just press enter. Once done, close the quotes and type end.
To run the alias set of commands, type alias ‘# alias alias_name’. In this example it would be ,
# alias alias_test
If VDOMs are being used, run this command under the ‘config vdom’ configuration.
Further examples are given in the "System" section of the "FortiOS Handbook - What’s New" document for v5.6.
