Hi, friends.

 

Are the DoS policies created in fortigate necessary when having HTTPS and HTTP publishing?


I have a SIP publishing policy on the firewall but I'm not sure if I should create DoS policies or not.

 

To avoid blocking problems due to false positives perhaps, I am configuring a DDos profile in MONITOR mode, but I have a question, what is the difference between "logging" and "monitor"?

 

I attach an image of my MONITOR profile.

Could you help me with this query please.

Logging: Enable/disable logging for specific anomalies or all of them. Anomalous traffic will be logged when the action is Block or Monitor.
Monitor: Allow the anomalous traffic, but record a log message if logging is enabled.
