To deploy the CN-Series firewall after cloning the repository from GitHub, it is critical to first change into a local directory for the cloned repository. This action sets the working context for any subsequent commands or modifications you need to make. By navigating to the local directory, you ensure that all file operations and commands are accurately targeted in the right path where the necessary files are located.

When you are in the correct directory, you have access to the necessary scripts, configuration files, and deployment artifacts that you may need to proceed with the deployment. If you skip this step and try to execute commands from another location, you may encounter errors or be unable to find the files necessary for the deployment process.

Other options may involve subsequent actions, such as changing to a specific subdirectory or editing configuration files, but these depend on first establishing your location in the local cloned repository. Therefore, maintaining the correct directory context is essential for a smooth deployment process.
