Question

Logic to send logs from EMS to FortiAnalyzer

Hi Fortinet Community,

 

When I try to get logs to FortiAnalyzer via EMS and ems endpoints, I see that the endpoint sends logs directly to FortiAnalyzer.

 

Logically I thought that it sends it to the analyzer on the EMS, but I realized that this is not the case.

 

 

How exactly does FortiAnalyzer and FortiClient EMS log collection logic work?

 

Best Regards,

Hi Ismail

 

For EMS you configure it in the "Log Settings".

For the client you configure it from on the "System Settings" endpoint profile.
