Solved: Running bash script on FTD

CiscoBrownBelt · ‎03-17-2023

Can you run scripts (no config changes just collecting configs, parameters, etc.) via expert mode on the FTD? Would you upload the file to root?

Ideally the file would be loaded into a non-root user account and given execute permissions. Depending on what it needs to do, it may need sudo to run successfully. Standard Linux safe computing practices apply here.

I have not done before. Would you simply upload the file to the root then execute it from there?
