Question
Defining FortiGate Services
Can anyone help me with the definitions of the services that run on the FortiGates? I think this would be highly helpful to those of us who are watching high memory or cpu utilization on a specific service but cannot correlate it to anything. Specifically I' m trying to figure out what the " scanunitd" service is/does. Here' s a partial list of the services I have seen, some of them are obviously self-explanatory: Self-Explanatory: thttp.........................http daemon ipsengine......................... ips engine hasync......................... ha sync service pop3......................... pop3 service smtp ......................... smtp service cli .........................cli service hatalk ......................... ha talk service httpsd .........................https daemon sshd .........................ssh daemon authd .........................authentication daemon alertmail .........................mail alerts urlfilter .........................url filter bgpd .........................bgp routing daemon ospfd .........................ospf routing daemon zebos_laun .........................zebos routing daemon ripd .........................rip routing daemon updated .........................av/ip spam/web filter update service snmpd .........................snmp daemon ftpd .........................ftp daemon imapd .........................imap daemon newcli .........................creates new cli session (?) chassis500 .........................chassis daemon quard .........................quaranine daemon nntpd .........................nntp daemon telnetd .........................telnet daemon ipsmonitor .........................ips monitor (?) pimd .........................pim/multicast daemon proxyd .........................proxy daemon imd .........................IM daemon Ambiguous: scanunitd.........................? miglogd.........................? forticron.........................? merged_dae.........................? init.........................? getty.........................? imi.........................? pdmd.........................? nsm.........................? cmbdsvr.........................? Please take the list and add or make changes where you deem necessary, thanks guys and gals!
