Additional CLI Commands for a USB key
Use the following CLI commands when you want to delete a file from a USB 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 fgt_system.conf, must be in the root directory.
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 USB key.
