Powershell cmdlets for managed Fortinet (FortiGate) Firewall

Primary LanguagePowerShellApache License 2.0Apache-2.0

PowerFGT

This is a Powershell module for configure a FortiGate (Fortinet) Firewall.

With this module (version 0.3.0) you can manage:

  • Address (Get/Add/Copy/Set/Remove object type ipmask/subnet)
  • AddressGroup (Get)
  • DNS (Get)
  • HA (Get)
  • Interface (Get)
  • IP Pool (Get)
  • Local User (Get)
  • Policy (Get)
  • RoutePolicy (Get)
  • Service (Get)
  • Service Group (Get)
  • Static Route (Get)
  • System Global (Get)
  • VDOM (Get)
  • Virtual IP (Get/Add/Remove object type static-nat)
  • Virtual WAN Link/SD-WAN (Get)
  • VPN IPsec Phase 1/Phase 2 Interface (Get)
  • Zone (Get)
  • Multi Connection

More functionality will be added later.

Connection can use HTTPS (default) or HTTP
Tested with FortiGate (using 5.6.x and 6.0.x firmware but it will be also work with 5.4.x)
Add (Experimental) support of VDOM is available using -vdom parameter for each cmdlet Don't use support to connect using API Token from 5.6.x (and later)

Usage

All resource management functions are available with the Powershell verbs GET, ADD, COPY, SET, REMOVE.
For example, you can manage Address with the following commands:

  • Get-FGTFirewallAddress
  • Add-FGTFirewallAddresss
  • Copy-FGTFirewallAddresss
  • Set-FGTFirewallAddresss
  • Remove-FGTFirewallAddresss

Requirements

  • Powershell 5 or 6 (Core) (If possible get the latest version)
  • An Fortinet FortiGate Firewall and HTTPS enable (recommended)

Instructions

Install the module

# Automated installation (Powershell 5 or later):
    Install-Module PowerFGT

# Import the module
    Import-Module PowerFGT

# Get commands in the module
    Get-Command -Module PowerFGT

# Get help
    Get-Help Get-FGTFirewallAddress -Full

Examples

Connecting to the FortiGate Firewall

The first thing to do is to connect to a FortiGate Firewall with the command Connect-FGT :

# Connect to the FortiGate Firewall
    Connect-FGT 192.0.2.1

#we get a prompt for credential

if you get a warning about Unable to connect Look Issue

Address Management

You can create a new Address Add-FGTFirewallAddress, retrieve its information Get-FGTFirewallAddress, modify its properties Set-FGTFirewallAddress, copy/clone its properties Copt-FGTFirewallAddress or delete it Remove-FGTFirewallAddress.

# Remove an address

Filtering

For Invoke-FGTRestMethod, it is possible to use -filter parameter You need to use FortiGate API syntax :

Key Operator Pattern Full Request Description
schedule == always GET /api/v2/cmdb/firewall/policy/?filter=schedule==always Only return firewall policy with schedule 'always'
schedule != always GET /api/v2/cmdb/firewall/policy/?filter=schedule!=always Return all firewall policy with schedule other than 'always'

and Filter Operators :

Operator Description
== Case insensitive match with pattern.
!= Does not match with pattern (case insensitive).
=@ Pattern found in object value (case insensitive).
!@ Pattern not found in object value (case insensitive).
<= Value must be less than or equal to pattern.
< Value must be less than pattern.
>= Value must be greater than or equal to pattern.
> Value must be greater than pattern.

For Invoke-FGTRestMethod and Get-XXX cmdlet like Get-FGTFirewallAddress, it is possible to using some helper filter (-filter_attribute, -filter_type, -filter_value)

# Get NetworkDevice named myFGT
    Get-FGTFirewallAddress -name  myFGT
...

# Get NetworkDevice contains myFGT
    Get-FGTFirewallAddress -name myFGT -filter_type contains
...

# Get NetworkDevice where subnet equal 192.0.2.0 255.255.255.0
    Get-FGTFirewallAddress -filter_attribute subnet -filter_type equal -filter_value 192.0.2.0 255.255.255.0
...

Actually, support only equal and contains filter type

Invoke API

for example to get Fortigate System Global Info

# get FortiGate System Global using API
    (Invoke-FGTRestMethod -method "get" -uri "api/v2/cmdb/system/global").results

    hostname                                : PowerFGT-FW1
[...]

to get API uri, you can use api/v2/cmdb/?action=schema uri for get schema
You can look also FortiOS - REST API Reference available on Fortinet Developer Network (FNDN)

VDOM

it is possible use VDOM using -vdom parameter on cmdlet command (by default it is root vdom)

For get FGT Firewall Address of vdomX

    Get-FGTFirewallAddress -vdom vdomX
[...]

For get FGT Firewall Address of vdomX and root

    Get-FGTFirewallAddress -vdom vdomX,root
[...]

For get FGT Firewall Address of all vdom

    Get-FGTFirewallAddress -vdom *
[...]

You can configure the "default" vdom when connect using

    Connect-FGT 192.0.2.1 -vdom vdomX
[...]

You can also change default vdom using

    Set-FGTConnection -vdom vdomY
[...]

MultiConnection

From release 0.3.0, it is possible to connect on same times to multi FortiGate You need to use -connection parameter to cmdlet

For example to get interface of 2 FortiGate

# Connect to first FortiGate
    $fw1 = Connect-FGT 192.0.2.1 -SkipCertificateCheck -DefaultConnection:$false

#DefaultConnection set to false is not mandatory but only don't set the connection info on global variable

# Connect to second FortiGate
    $sw2 = Connect-FGT 192.0.2.1 -SkipCertificateCheck -DefaultConnection:$false

# Get Interface for first FortiGate
    Get-FGTSystemInterface -connection $sw1 | Format-Table

    q_origin_key  name          vdom vrf cli-conn-status fortilink mode   distance priority dhcp-relay-service
    ------------  ----          ---- --- --------------- --------- ----   -------- -------- ------------------
    DCFW          DCFW          root   0               0 disable   static        5        0 enable
    FITNUC        FITNUC        root   0               0 disable   static        5        0 disable
....

# Get Interface for second FortiGate
    Get-FGTSystemInterface -connection $sw1 | Format-Table

    q_origin_key  name          vdom vrf cli-conn-status fortilink mode   distance priority dhcp-relay-service
    ------------  ----          ---- --- --------------- --------- ----   -------- -------- ------------------
    FSA-DMZ       FSA-DMZ       root   0               0 disable   static        5        0 disable
    FSA-DMZ2      FSA-DMZ2      root   0               0 disable   static        5        0 disable
    FWLC          FWLC          root   0               0 disable   static        5        0 enable
...

#Each cmdlet can use -connection parameter

Disconnecting

# Disconnect from the FortiGate
    Disconnect-FGT

Issue

Unable to connect (certificate)

if you use Connect-FGT and get Unable to Connect (certificate)

The issue coming from use Self-Signed or Expired Certificate for Firewall Management
Try to connect using Connect-FGT -SkipCertificateCheck

Unable to connect

You can use also Connect-FGT -httpOnly for connect using HTTP (NOT RECOMMENDED !)
