CLI Guide - WatchGuard Technologies

Getting started with the WatchGuard CLI
lowing example of command line block repetition, the IP
addresses, port numbers, and weighting is assigned for
three servers in a round-robin load balanced cluster:
WG(config)#nat –vip round –server \
{10.10.0.100 80 1} {10.10.0.101 80 2} \
{10.10.0.102 80 3}
Note too, that the command line in the above example was
“extended” with the use of the backslash (\) character, so
that more parameters could be included in the command.
Reviewing the recently used commands
The WatchGuard CLI stores up to 20 commands (at each
level in every mode) in a History buffer, which you can use
to view your most recent tasks.
• Type history at any prompt to review the
last twenty commands applied at that level of the CLI.
The CLI will append a number to each line, to indicate
its place in the overall chronology. The higher the
number, the more recently that command was enacted.
(Note that active command history listings may have
multiple-digit numbers.)
• Type !! (two exclamation points) to recall and re-enact
the most recently used command recorded in the
buffer for this mode and level.
• Type !6 (exclamation point followed by a number) to
display and enact the command identified as “6” in the
buffer at this CLI level.
• Type !! to display the most
recent command and to append it with arguments and
values as needed. For example, if the last command
was “show”, you could type “!!address” to display the
current list of address groups.
