Dears,

I want to get an inventory of all websites (via laptops) and apps (via mobile phones) that are used on my lan & wifi network. How do I have to configure my fortigate to work in "transparant monitor"-mode for all traffic sent to the WAN ?

Next step woul be then to activate policies to block unwanted destinations.

Do you have a cookbook how to tackle this ?

I have a #FG30E running FortiOS 5.6.4

Thx for your help !

Hello,

 

Thank you for your question. I think this might be what you are looking for:

https://docs.fortinet.com/document/fortigate/6.0.0/handbook/299391/learning-mode

But you will need to have logging enabled, so Forticloud logging would be the best for you.

and before you do anything, start with an upgrade. FortiOS 5.6 is long out of support.

To which version would you recommend me to go ?

Can i upgrade in one move towards 6.x or do I have to make intermediate steps ?
