Hello,

  We are using "FortiGate 100D" firewall with "fortianalyzer 100c" for reporting purpose. I want to delete all internet browsing history from Fortianalyzer. I am confused about this Task will perform from which side :  Fortigate  or  Fortianalyzer ? I have done one thing from my side after Googling is that I had given below command on FortiGate Command console: execute log delete-all But still logs are there and showing after search.   so what i need to do ? Please give me exact solution

    If your FGT have setting like :

    config log fortianalyzer setting     set status enable     set server x.x.x.x

    end

    The log will save on FortiAnalyzer side.

    Hi ift38375,

    If you want to delete logs from Fortianalyzer go to Log Broswse: see the attached inage FAZ_logbrows.jpg.

     

    Then select the log files you want to delete - deselect the actual files where the logs are stored real-time (if you have real-time logging) - you cannot delete files which are open and in use.

    Click the delete button - see the FAZ_delete.jpg.

    Click the delete button - see the FAZ_delete.jpg.

     

    You have to wait some time that the analyzer will remove the logs from the SQL database also.

    You should also clear the cache on the analyzer for the device:

    diag sql ...
