Investigating sessions count - Discrepancies between FortiGate and Forti Analyzer.

[MVSantoshReddy]

Hello team,

We have identified a discrepancy of nearly 5 million session counts in the FortiAnalyzer session data. While the actual data from FortiGate indicates a total of 1,000,000 sessions for a specific time period, we observe only 5,000,000 sessions in FortiAnalyzer for the same period. We need to investigate the factors contributing to this discrepancy and determine whether we can trust the data. Is there real-time synchronization between the devices?

Can you confirm how are you calculating the session numbers in both Fortigate and Fortianalyzer?
