Question

help with reports

  • July 4, 2026

I have a FortiGate 600F firewall, and I would like to configure logging and reporting so that all logs and reports remain within my organization's infrastructure and are not stored or processed outside the organization (e.g., in the cloud).

What is the easiest and most appropriate solution to achieve this? Could you please explain the recommended approach and provide the implementation steps?

Thank you.

    It should be this command:

    config log fortiguard setting
        set status enable

    end

    If I’m not wrong it should be doable from WebUI as well (Log & Report > Log settings)

      Hi ​@bahaa33 

      If you need more advanced reporting, centralized log collection across multiple FortiGates, or longer retention, you would deploy an on-premises FortiAnalyzer(stored locally on prem)
      Deploy an on-premises FortiAnalyzer (physical or VM) and configure:

      config log fortianalyzer setting
          set status enable
          set server <FortiAnalyzer-IP>
          set upload-option realtime
      end

      FGT 600F does not have hard disk and only has memory, so FAZ would be a good option

      Thanks, Salon
