Technical Note: Host names not being displayed in FortiAnalyzer logs

This article provides a solution for when no hostnames are seen on the FortiAnalyzer under Log View despite resolved host names being enabled on the FortiGate.

  -  Go to Log View > Column Settings > More Columns

  -  From the list, check Host Name.

  -  The resolved hosts should now be displayed under the Host Name column.

If there are no host names for HTTPS traffic, then enable SSL inspection on the firewall policy in order to see host names for HTTPS traffic.
