Hello solo1,

 

Yes, you can configure the syslog server on the fortigate. Please refer to the below document for configure syslog settings:

https://help.fortinet.com/fadc/4-5-1/olh/Content/FortiADC/handbook/log_remote.htm

 

You can also check the communication between the Syslog and Fortigate with the help of the below document:

I hope it will help you.
