Hi, guys,

 

I am rather new to Fortinet product; I am configuring the Fortigate 400e with FortiOS v6.4.2; 

 

For logging traffic, I can not enable "set fortiview-local-traffic enable" as the attached. Any recommendation ?

( I have only local Fortiview, no FortiAnalyzer, FortiManager, FortiCloud..)

 

Many many thx in advance.

    It's not new with 6.4, but since 6.0 to see those historical log you need to have either disk logging, FAZ, or FortiCloud enabled. The 400E doesn't seem to have a disk (401E has it) so your only option is FortiCloud (free for basic storage) if you don't have a FAZ.
