Multiple rules editing at the same time

How I can edit multiple rules at the same time using CLI?

Not sure I understand your question. Pretty much by definition in the cli you are entering one command at a time. So I guess you are asking about something else.

What are you trying to achieve or what task are you trying to perform on multiple rules?

Hello Steven,

I trying to change Profile Setting -> Antivirus from none to allert-all in all the rules at the same time (300 rules) instead of changing one by one. Sorry for my English...

Hi all,

If you download the migration Tool V3, you can do that. else, directly in the palo, it's not.

Hope help.

I find a way how to do that via CLI:

> set cli config-output-format set
> configure
# show | match "security rules.*profile-setting"
copy all rules in Word change the necessary settings (I replaced "profiles vulnerability alert-all" to "profiles vulnerability alert-all virus alert-all")
paste edited strings to CLI
# run show config diff
# commit

Glad you have it all figured out. I've used that technique as well it works.
