How to find Application category list

Hello guys,

 

I'm currently creating custom applications signatures. Application category looks to be mandatory.

I'm looking on KB / Internet but I canno't find a table of correspondence between app_cat number & category ..

 

I just know app_cat 15 corresponding to Network service ..  :D

 

Do you have it / know where I can find it ?

 

Thank you in advance,

Regards

Hello Alex,

If your FAZ runs on something prior to 5.4, do this from time to time (or when you see that Fortiguard has updated app signatures):
