File size limits are determined by the input type (on-demand, sniffer etc). The default limit for each type is set to 200MB for single file and 500MB for uncompressed archives. If a file exceeds this limit, it may not be analyzed or could result in an error.

 

See the following example of how to modify the file size on demand:

 

filesize-limit -tondemand -v250 -u500

Once the value has been modified, the file can be analyzed.

It is important to note that the maximum values supported by the FortiSandbox are defined in Appendix ‌‌D: Maximum Values - FortiSandbox administration guide.
