| Description | This article describes how to troubleshoot when FortiGate cannot connect to FortiAnalyzer Cloud. |
| Scope | FortiGate, FortiAnalyzer-Cloud. |
| Solution |
Make sure the FortiGate firmware version and FortiAnalyzer Cloud version are compatible.
Run a ping to fortianalyzer.forticloud.com to find the IP address of the FortiAnalyzer Cloud.
execute ping fortianalyzer.forticloud.com
Or run the following commands on the FortiAnalyzer Cloud:
diagnose debug enable diagnose test application vmd 20
See Identifying the public IP address - FortiAnalyzer Cloud documentation.
Once the FortiAnalyzer Cloud IP is identified, it can be used to collect the sniffer and debug flow.
diagnose sniffer packet any 'host w.x.y.z. and port 514' 4 0 l <----- Where w.x.y.z is the FortiAnalyzer IP address.
Press Ctrl+C to stop the sniffer.
diagnose debug reset diagnose debug flow filter clear diagnose debug console timestamp enable diagnose debug flow show function-name enable diagnose debug flow show iprope enable diagnose debug flow filter addr w.x.y.z diagnose debug flow filter port 514 diagnose debug flow trace start 99 diagnose debug enable
To stop the debug commands later, Press Ctrl + c and enter 'diagnose debug reset'.
execute ping service.fortiguard.net execute ping update.fortiguard.net
config log fortianalyzer-cloud setting
