| Scope | FortiGate v7.6.0. |
| Solution |
This feature simplifies the process of policy creation, making it more adaptable and feasible. Below are the steps to configure it :
Under FortiView Sources, 'Right-Click on Sources -> Create Policy, create a Firewall Policy by IP address or Create NAC Policy. It depends on what information is included in the FortiView entry.
The source address and destination address will be prefilled from the FortiView :
When selecting 'Create Firewall Policy by IP', a new page will open for a 'New Policy' creation and some of the information will be auto-filled based on the data available in the logs and the rest of the information should be filled in by the user:
If the policy is successfully created, a pop-up window 'Firewall Policy Created' should appear on the right side corner.
When selecting the 'Create NAC Policy' option, the MAC address of the device should be used instead.
It would be same procedure for FortiView Destination :
Some preview information is included like incoming and outgoing interfaces, source, and destination. If the source or the destination objects are not there, a temporary object will be created.
Once the Policy is created, a pop-up 'Firewall Policy is created' will be received on the corner as well. |
