    Hi,

    right click in fortiview line you're interested in, and select "view related logs";

    that action will take to a logview with full  details for matched traffic

    If you want to resolve ip to hostname in FortiView, please try CLI:

    config system fortiview setting

    set resolve-ip enable

    end

     

    regards,

    If the destinations are showing on FGT as hostname & not FAZ, then you probably have the following setting on FGT (which only controls how info is displayed in the GUI): config log gui-display set resolve-host enable end

     

    It is most accurate to do the DNS resolution before the logs are generated.  That also ensures that neither FGT nor FAZ have to do any DNS resolution in the future (since it is recorded in the log).

     

    config log setting set resolve-ip enable

    end
