This article describes how to create a Device Profiling Rule with the SSH method.
Scope
FortiNAC -F, FortiNAC.
Solution
Step 1: Establish an SSH session to host and check the output that comes from the host after establishing the SSH session.
Step 2: After learning the first output from the host after the SSH connection, create a new Device Profiling Rule and select the SSH method. Type the credentials in the ‘Credentials’ field that will be used by FortiNAC to establish an SSH session, add a Command, select the ‘expect’ option, and type the text that will be expected by FortiNAC after the SSH connection. Instead of typing exact output, regex can also be used.
Step 3: Go to Users & Hosts > Adaptors, ‘Right-click’ on the host, select ‘Test Device Profiling Rule’, select the DPR that has been created with the SSH method and select ‘OK’.
Step 4: Go to Users & Host > Enpoint Fingerprints and check the Fingerprints that were learned by the SSH method.
