    How much disk space did you allocate for your logs? Possible the logs were " rolled over" because of file space on the analyzer? Also make sure that the templates you are using are monthly and not 24hrs. Most by default give you the last 25hrs of event data.

    Hi, check once again if you' ve logs for that period actually. Browse the traffic or another logs to verify log entries date. Once that verified, you and we' ll be able to focus on reporting problem. regards,

    Hey renanss,

    what do you mean by 'amount of data'?

    -> bandwidth used by FortiGate?

    -> amount of logs generated by FortiGate?

    -> amount of disk space used on FortiAnalyzer?

     

    In addition, how long does your FortiAnalyzer retain logs in the database (Analytics retention)? If less than one month, you cannot generate reports that cover the duration of a month; reports can only take into consideration logs in the database, and if the logs are not old enough, then the report will have incomlete data.

    Currently in Metro dp state of SP there are 5 firewalls that are sending logs (SSL Log, AntiVirus Log, Web Filter Log, IPS Log, Application Control Log, DNS Query Log, Event Log, Traffic Log) that send logs to FortAnalyzer 7.0.5 .I need help creating a report in Analyzer where I can get the size of all logs that are sent from a firewall to Analyzer, we need to know how many logs in Gigabyte are generated during a month from a given firewall.

    The second question is whether I can get separately from a firewall that the Analyzer receives the logs, how many web filter log data is generated in gigabytes, how many logs in application control are also sent to the analyzer of a given firewall.

    I need to carry out this survey to start a project to insert the logs in the Microsoft SIEM.
