Description
This article describes how to resolve an issue where local traffic logs are not visible under Logs & Reports and the page shows the message 'No results'.
Scope
FortiGate.
Solution
Identify exactly where logs are displayed from in the unit.
In the above screenshot, the log location is set to the disk, so it is necessary to verify the log disk settings.
show full-configuration log disk filter
config log disk filter
set severity information <- Make sure severity is set to information.
set forward-traffic enable
set local-traffic disable <-
set multicast-traffic enable
set sniffer-traffic enable
set anomaly enable
set voip enable
set gtp enable
set filter ''
set filter-type include
end
The 'local-traffic' option is set to disable due to which local-traffic logs are not showing in FortiGate.
Enable the option and verify the logs.
Enable the option and verify the logs.
config log disk filter
set local-traffic enable
end
set local-traffic enable
end
In cases where said log location is memory or FortiCloud, follow these settings.
config log memory filter
set local-traffic enable
end
config log fortiguard filter
set local-traffic enable
end
set local-traffic enable
end
config log fortiguard filter
set local-traffic enable
end
Additionally, make sure to enable the following options in log settings.
config log setting
set local-in-allow enable <- Show logs for traffic designated to FortiGate such as ping, management.
set local-out enable <- Show logs of traffic generated from FortiGate.
end
set local-in-allow enable <- Show logs for traffic designated to FortiGate such as ping, management.
set local-out enable <- Show logs of traffic generated from FortiGate.
end
Traffic designated to FortiGate:
Traffic generated from FortiGate:
Note: As of FortiOS 7.6, Local Traffic Logging can be enabled on a Local-In Policy basis. This will allow more granular control over target logging on specific local-In policies. In turn, this would reduce over-generalized logging.
config log setting
set local-in-policy-log {enable | disable}
end
config firewall local-in-policy
edit <id> <- Point specific Local-In policy in question.
set logtraffic {enable | disable}
end
end
