Fetcher Management Log fetching is used to retrieve archived logs from one FortiAnalyzer device to another. This allows administrators to run queries and reports against historic data, which can be useful for forensic analysis. The fetching FortiAnalyzer can query the server FortiAnalyzer and retrieve the log data for a specified […]
Log Forwarding You can forward logs from a FortiAnalyzer unit to another FortiAnalyzer unit, a syslog server, or a Common Event Format (CEF) server when you use the default forwarding mode in log forwarding. The client is the FortiAnalyzer unit that forwards logs to another device. The server is the […]
Certificates The FortiAnalyzer generates a certificate request based on the information you entered to identify the FortiAnalyzer unit. After you generate a certificate request, you can download the request to a management computer and then forward the request to a CA. Local certificates are issued for a specific server, or […]
Administrative Domains Administrative domains (ADOMs) enable administrators to manage only those devices that they are specifically assigned, based on the ADOMs to which they have access. When the ADOM mode is advanced, FortiGate devices with multiple VDOMs can be divided among multiple ADOMs. Administrator accounts can be tied to one […]
RAID Management RAID helps to divide data storage over multiple disks, providing increased data reliability. For FortiAnalyzer devices containing multiple hard disks, you can configure the RAID array for capacity, performance, and/or availability. Supported RAID levels FortiAnalyzer units with multiple hard drives can support the following RAID levels: Linear RAID […]
Configuring network interfaces Fortinet devices can be connected to any of the FortiAnalyzer unit’s interfaces. The DNS servers must be on the networks to which the FortiAnalyzer unit connects, and should have two different IP addresses. The following port configuration is recommended: Use port 1 for device log traffic, and […]
Network The network settings are used to configure ports for the FortiAnalyzer unit. You should also specify what port and methods that an administrators can use to access the FortiAnalyzer unit. If required, static routes can be configured. The default port for FortiAnalyzer units is port 1. It can be […]
Logging Topology The Logging Topology pane shows the physical topology of devices in the Security Fabric. Click, hold, and drag to adjust the view in the content pane, and double-click or use the scroll wheel to change the zoom. The visualization can be filtered to show only FortiAnalyzer devices or […]
