| Description | This article describes how to fix the issue when FortiGate and FortiAnalyzer are unable to connect. |
| Scope | FortiGate, FortiAnalyzer. |

While adding the FortiAnalyzer to FortiGate, they will not connect. After checking the SSL handshake neither FortiGate nor FortiAnalyzer support some of the chiper suites. Below is the image showing tLS version errors.
For FortiAnalyzer, the TLS versions and the encryption algorithm are controlled using the following commands:
config log fortianalyzer setting
Commands to check connectivity.
diag sniffer packet any 'host x.x.x.x and port 514' 6 0 l diag debug reset diag debug app fgtlog 255(since 7.2) diag debug app miglogd 255 diag debug enable
x.x.x.x is the IP address of the FortiAnalyzer.
diag sniffer packet any 'host y.y.y.y and port 514' 3 0 l
y.y.y.y is the IP address of the FortiGate. |
