Question

Forward Traffic log not emailed

Hi,

 

I am having a problem with sending "Forward Traffic" log to email.

I would appreciate if anyone can help me.

Fortigate 60E with 6.4
No problem with email setting. ("diagnose log alertmail test" works.)

automation-trigger sends log to email. (So, email setting and sending triggered log is OK.)

Firewall policy contains following lines.

  set logtraffic all
  set logtraffic-start enable

Forward Traffic log is populated.

No syslog server deployed.

What am I missing?

 

Thank you  in advance.

 

H

    Hey H,

    can you let us know what the automation trigger and stitch look like so we can double-check if there might be issues with the setup?

    Are you filtering for a specific log ID for example?

    Also, you can test an automation stitch by right-clicking on it in GUI (might depend on your firmware version):
