How to logout users from CLI and Web UI

srikanth — Tue, 11 Dec 2012 06:41:23 GMT

Hi was wondering if we can logout users who are authenticated from Radius and local database if we have super user permissions

Also will i be able to clear commit which is already in progress because if i stop a commit and try commit at a later time it shows me error saying that there is a commit in progress and will not work unless I restart the firewall.

Any help?

with

>delete admin-sessions

you can log out all currently logged in Admins/Users from CLI or WebUI

I would NOT recommend to stop a running commits

but if you do

you should take a look at your jobs

> show jobs all / show jobs id <ID>

and/or try a

>commit force

Cheers

Hi Marco ,

Thanks for the prompt reply will check that out on my PA firewall.

Do we have any way to logout users from Web UI?

I am facing this commit problem usually when i stop the signature updates abruptly and do some changes the system says commit in progress please try later.

In this case will a commit force work?

Thanks,

Srikanth

None that i know of.

For the commits:

Again:

i would strongly recommend NOT to stop running commits.

This could lead to unstable situations.

Just a theoretical question:

How do you stop commits?

Do you close the window in WebUI? This will not stop a commit.

Please check Tasks (lower right of WebUI)

"show jobs all" at CLI

Srikanth,

There is no way to logout firewall administrators through the Web GUI. Using the command "delete admin-sessions" is the only option. Only global protect users can be logged out through CLI and Web GUI as well.
