Run the commands

Sign in over SSH and run these at the > prompt:

FTD CLISH
show version
show managers
show running-config
show access-control-config
show failover
show failover state
show user
show ntp
show ssh-access-list
show license all
show network

Save the transcript

  • Save the whole session as one .txt file and keep the > prompt lines. Each output is read under the command on the prompt line above it.
  • Run each command without an | include filter. The output is filed under the command before the |, so a filtered output reads as if it were complete.

What the upload is read for

Over SSH ConfigProof cannot see application, URL and user conditions, intrusion policy content, inheritance, pending deployment, the platform settings policy or policy assignment. The analysis lists them as gaps.

Upload

  1. Open New analysis

    Choose File upload and select the file, or choose Paste, paste the output and select Upload and parse.

  2. It is sent at once

    One file per upload. ConfigProof reads the vendor and export type from the content, not the file name, then asks the client, project and name. If your role is limited to certain clients, choose the client first.

  3. Answer the picker if asked

    A file that holds several VDOMs, contexts, virtual systems or gateways opens a picker. Each one you choose is its own analysis.
