Destinations
The Destinations console provides information about the destination IP addresses of traffic on your FortiGate unit, as well as the application used. You can drill down the displayed information, and also select the device and time period, and apply search filters.
This console can be filtered by Country, Destination Interface, Destination IP, Policy, Result, and Source Interface. For more on filters, see Filtering options.
Scenario: Monitoring destination data
The Destinations console can be used to access detailed information on user destination-accessing through the use of the console’s drilldown functionality. In this scenario, the console is used to find out more about a particular user’s Facebook usage patterns over a 24-hour period:
- Go to FortiView > Destinations.
- Select 1 hour from the Time Display options at the top right corner of the console.
- The easiest way to locate most destinations is to scan the Applications column for the name of the application. Once the session containing Facebook has been located, double-click it to access the Destination summary window.
- Locate Facebook in the Applications column and double-click it to view the Facebook drilldown page. From here, detailed information regarding the user’s Facebook session can be accessed.

Hello Mike,
Useful and interesting Post !
I have some trouble with fortiview and i’d love to ask a questions,
I have two FortiGate devices in two different companies, FG VM64 and FG-200E.
Under fortiview / Traffic from LANDMZ / Sources, i want to see and filter logs by “user”.
FG-200E can filter by username and also has many other options to filter logs, but FGVM64 has only “Source” and “Source Device” filter applicable.
My question is: Doesn’t VM64 supports other filter options or do i have to turn something on to enable filter options ?
Note: FG200E is logging in memory, whether FGVM64 has Disk logging enabled. Both of them has traffic logging enabled (Under policy / Logging option / Log Allowed Traffic / All Sessions) and both of them are using DC Agent to poll user database from AD. I know DC Agent is configured well because everything else is working fine and i can see users under Monitor / Firewall user monitor and under Log&Report / Forward traffic.
I already tried using different Browsers.
Regards.
So both FortiGates are configured the same? The only difference is the platform it is on? (appliance vs VM)
Hello and thanks for a quick response !
No, configurations are different, but both are using DC agent to poll users from AD and then users are matched under different policies to give them different web access privileges.
Under fortiview/source, Physical version has way more options to filter traffic, than VM version.
But Yesterday i asked friend of mine, who has FG100E (no DC agent on it, used as transparent) and he also has no that additional filters available. So i dont think that its Physical/Virtual related.
Could it be because of software version ?
FG200E: v6.0.2
FG100E and VM: v6.0.4
Hello Mike,
I configured fortigate to serve as web proxy, i configured the rules under proxy tab, no rules in the IPv4 policy section. I am not seeing logs in fortiview, but when i go to the proxy policy and i right-click and click on ‘show matching logs’, i can see see logs.
What am i doing wrongly
