Description This article describes thatif virtual IP (VIP) is configured, the VIP is used in the field 'hostname' of UTM traffic log.
Scope  
Solution

In FortiGate, when virtual IP is configured, log (e.g. UTM log) will have the field 'hostname'.

 

This is the virtual IP configured.

For example, in topology below, external VIP 10.20.20.31 is translated to 10.30.30.2 by DNAT.

# config firewall vi

    edit "vip_10.20.20.40"

        set uuid d023a770-780b-51ec-8a14-36630d1f08c4

        set extip 10.20.20.40

        set mappedip "10.30.30.2"

        set extintf "any"

    next

end

 

# config firewall polic

    edit 1

        set name "allow_vip"

        set uuid 19ad7b00-780c-51ec-89cf-2e4c338cdd7f

        set srcintf "port2"

        set dstintf "port3"

        set srcaddr "all"

        set dstaddr "vip_10.20.20.40"

        set action accept

        set schedule "always"

        set service "ALL"

        set utm-status enable

        set ssl-ssh-profile "certificate-inspection"

        set av-profile "default"

        set ips-sensor "default"

        set application-list "default"

        set logtraffic all

        set nat enable

    next

end

 

UTM log of this firewall policy will be marked with the field 'hostname' in which the VIP of '10.20.20.40' is recorded in addition to the DNAT’d destination IP of '10.30.30.2'.
