Description
It is possible to configure the FortiGate to send an SNMP trap when its configuration is not synchronized with the FortiManager database.
Scope


Solution
The specific event type is called "fm-conf-change"

CLI configuration (only) :

config system snmp community
    edit 1
        set events fm-conf-change
            config hosts
                edit 1
                    set ip X.X.X.X
                next
            end
        set name "public"
    next
end



As soon as the FortiGate detects that the FortiManager has not synchronized the configuration in its database, the FortiGate will issue the following SNMP trap:

fgFmTrapConfChange NOTIFICATION-TYPE
OBJECTS { fnSysSerial }
STATUS current
DESCRIPTION
"The device configuration has been changed by something other than the
managing FortiManager device."
::= { fgFmTrapPrefix 1003 }


(OID).1.3.6.1.4.1.12356.101.6.0.1003


If you load the FortiGate MIB, the textual OID would be:
iso.org.dod.internet.private.enterprises.fortinet.fnFortiGateMib.fgMgmt.fgFmTrapPrefix.fgFmTrapConfChange
