Hello, Since a few versions of os 5.0 there is no session monitor in the GUI. I had a hope that the future will return in OS 5 patch 4 but no. The monitor is still not available. The only method to look to the sessions is on the cli but for this one I prefer the GUI. More people missing this monitor option?

    If you are referring to the Top Sessions widget as far as I am aware it always been there -- it' s just that it doesn' t fit into the two column format -- just create a new dashboard, set to 1-column then add the Top Sessions widget to that.

    In FortiOS 5.0 I notice that under User Monitor I can see only Firewall users. FSAE Users are not seen. In FortiOS 4.3 we could see Firewall[LDAP/Radius] users and FSAE Users could also be seen. Is this correct.

    Top Sessions is not exactly what I mean. What I mean is the Session Monitor Under Policy that was in the gui untill patch 2 I think. Then it was removed I think from the gui. The only way to look in to the sessions is from the console

    This is still available in 5.0.4. You can use " Top Sessions" as Dave suggested, but change the " Report by" to " All" . The function should be the same as the standalone session monitor that was available in previous releases.

    Yeah, Dave was right. Creating New Dashboard and adding Top Sessions widget solve my problem. You only must change Report by -> All Thanks Dave and jthompson

    In FOS 5.0, in the upper right corner you have a checkbox " Show FSSO Users"
