Description
This article explains the differences in values returned by the GUI and CLI debugging processes in FortiGate devices. The corresponding CLI command is as follows:
# diagnose test application dnsproxy 2
Scope
FortiOS 7.2, any supported version of FortiGate.
Solution
See the diagram below for clarification. The numbered points of interest are as follows:
1) The last time the DNS was tested in the local FortiGate (in the date/hour format).
2) The DNS latency from the last test. (As referred to in points 1 and 4.)
3) The CLI equivalent of point 2, 'Latency'. Note: a latency of '1' in dnsproxy represents a latency of 10 milliseconds.
4) The CLI equivalent of point 1, the last time the DNS was tested or the value was updated. The measurement is in milliseconds.
