Issue between trial FortiAnalyzer and Fortigate

Hello All,

 

I am using FortiAnalyzer and Fortigate 6.4 trial in gns3 and i am trying to connect  the FGT to the FAZ. I found out this thread - https://forum.fortinet.com/tm.aspx?m=177802 and i have followed the instructions there, but i am still facing an issue. Here is what i see on the CLI of FGT:

 

FW-1 # exec log fortianalyzer test-connectivity Failed to get FAZ's status. No response from server. (-20) FW-1 # Would someone please assist me? Thanks.

Kind regards,

George

Hi there, a couple of months after your question:

 

I faced the same issue. Ping, tracert were ok, but no logs of the FortiGate to be seen in the FAZ.

I found out that the Fortigate was sending its messages using a wrong interface, I assume because of the VPN tunnel configured. To solve this, I went to the Forti's CLI and forced the source interface and set the FAZ serial number:

 

# config log fortianalyzer setting

# set source-ip a.b.c.d

# set serial xxyyyzz

 

And then it was ok: logs were received by the FAZ.

 

Hopefully it will help someone :)
