| Description | This article discusses the log field and the log message format that is sent by the FortiGate to the FortiAnalyzer for logging purposes. |
| Scope | FortiGate and FortiAnalyzer. |
| Solution |
The log message format and log field received by the FortiAnalyzer from the FortiGate will have the same log content. The following log messages collected from both devices will yield the same information, except the log messages in FortiAnalyzer may have extra log fields and content due to the log field enrichment and the comparison between FortiGate and FortiAnalyzer with the System Event log as an example.
Log Message from FortiGate:
