Hi there,

The ports you need to open up in order for the FG50F to send logs to the FG300G are:

  • TCP 514 - This is the default port for syslog.
  • UDP 514 - This is an alternative port for syslog.
  • TCP 1025 - This is the port for the FortiAnalyzer Management Interface.

You will need to open these ports on both the FG50F and the FG300G.

Here are the steps on how to open ports on the FG50F:

  1. Go to Policy & Objects > Objects > Network > Interfaces.
  2. Select the interface that you want to open the ports on.
  3. Click on the Edit button.
  4. Click on the Advanced tab.
  5. In the Port Forwarding section, enter the ports that you want to open.
  6. Click on the Save button.

Here are the steps on how to open ports on the FG300G:

  1. Go to Policy & Objects > Objects > Network > Interfaces.
  2. Select the interface that you want to open the ports on.
  3. Click on the Edit button.
  4. Click on the Advanced tab.
  5. In the Port Forwarding section, enter the ports that you want to open.
  6. Click on the Save button.

Once you have opened the ports, you should be able to send logs from the FG50F to the FG300G.

Hi,

 

Here are the ports you need to open:

  1. FortiGuard Log Forwarding (FGT Log Forwarding):

    • TCP: 514
    • UDP: 514
  2. Fortinet's FortiAnalyzer Protocol (FAP):

    • TCP: 541
    • UDP: 541

Ensure that the above ports are open in both directions, i.e., from FortiGate FG50F to FortiAnalyzer FAZ300G and vice versa.

 

BR,

Manosh
