Additional CLI Commands for a USB key
Use the following CLI commands when you want to delete a file from the FortiUSB
key, list what files are on the key, including formatting the key or renaming a file:
• exec usb-disk list
• exec usb-disk delete <filename>
• exec usb-disk format
• exec usb-disk rename <old_filename1> <old_filename2>
Note: You need an unencrypted configuration file for this feature. Also the default files,
image.out and system.conf, must be in the root directory of the USB key.
Note: Make sure at least FortiOS v3.0MR1 is installed on the FortiGate unit before
installing.
Note: If you are trying to delete a configuration file from the CLI command interface, and
the filename contains spaces, you will need quotations around the filename before you can
delete the file from the FortiUSB key.
