Hi there, log files Mac do they exist? I have problems losing connection with Wifi. Is FortNac creating log files
So you are having posture issues once connecting? Or you can't even join the WiFi? What do the FortiNAC logs say? Does it receive the posture status of the endpoint at all? Is this just one client or multiple? What version of FortiNAC?
It is not certain that it is caused by FortiNAC. You may also check the logs on the WiFi controller.
On FNAC you can access to logs via menu Logs > Events & Alarms.
The problem is that Mac's are losing their connection with Wifi. Push an Profile with Jamf all settings ,so it works, and random Macbooks lose the connection some times (the SSID is not visible anymore) solution is to remove the profile and push the profile again and Wifi is working again (SSID is visible)
Persistant agent is version 10.7.2.13
so I was hoping that the Persistant agent had its own log file to see what is happening. (and not the Wifi.log from Mac it self (no info)
You can refer to this article that shows where you can find the agent logs in the end host for every OS.
Thanks for your article @ebilcari but with version 10 Fortinac dont write into
On MacOS hosts (Agent version 10.x):
/var/log/bndaemon.error.log
/var/log/syslog
Or do i need to activate it first in what @AEK mention first ?
No need to activate them as I know. I did a quick internal check and it seems that there was a recent change, the logs now are moved to 'bndaemon.log'.
sudo launchctl unload /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.bradfordnetworks.agent.plist
sudo defaults write /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.bradfordnetworks.agent.plist StandardOutPath -string "/var/log/bndaemon.log"sudo defaults write /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.bradfordnetworks.agent.plist StandardErrorPath -string "/var/log/bndaemon.error.log"
sudo launchctl load /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.bradfordnetworks.agent.plist
works for me now
