Which process caches logs on FortiGate when FortiAnalyzer is not readable?
The process logfiled in FortiGate units with an SSD disk is responsible for buffering logs when FortiAnalyzer is unreachable. If the connection to FortiAnalyzer is lost and the memory log buffer is full, logfiled allows logs to be buffered on disk. These logs are then sent to FortiAnalyzer once the connection is restored. This reliable logging mechanism ensures that logs are not lost during periods when FortiAnalyzer is not reachable, thereby maintaining log integrity and continuity. Reference: FortiOS 7.4.1 Administration Guide, 'Log Buffering' and 'Reliable Logging' sections.
Which two of the available registration methods place the device automatically in its assigned ADOM? (Choose two.)
The registration methods that automatically place a device in its assigned ADOM are using the serial number and fabric authorization. When devices are added to FortiAnalyzer using these methods, they are automatically placed in the appropriate ADOM, which could be a default ADOM based on the device type or a predefined ADOM based on the serial number or fabric authorization. This simplifies the management of devices and their logs by organizing them into their respective ADOMs from the moment they are registered. Reference: FortiAnalyzer 7.4.1 Administration Guide, 'Default device type ADOMs' and 'Assigning devices to an ADOM' sections.
In a Fortinet Security Fabric, what can make an upstream FortiGate create traffic logs associated with sessions initiated on downstream FortiGate devices?
In a Fortinet Security Fabric, an upstream FortiGate may create traffic logs for sessions initiated on downstream FortiGate devices if the downstream device is unable to connect to FortiAnalyzer. This allows for continuity of logging and ensures that session logs are captured and stored even if the downstream device loses its connection to the log management system. Reference: FortiAnalyzer 7.4.1 Administration Guide, 'Fortinet Security Fabric' section.
Which two statements about FortiAnalyzer operating modes are true? (Choose two.)
The default operating mode for FortiAnalyzer is analyzer mode. In this mode, FortiAnalyzer provides full functionality for event management and reporting features. This mode is intended for environments where comprehensive analysis and reporting are required. It allows FortiAnalyzer to collect, analyze, and store logs, as well as generate reports and manage events. Reference: FortiAnalyzer 7.4.1 Administration Guide, 'Operating modes' section.
Which command can you use to find the IP addresses of the devices sending logs to FortiAnalyzer?
The command diagnose debug application oftpd 8 is used to obtain detailed debug output for the OFTP (Over the FortiGate Protocol) daemon on FortiAnalyzer. This protocol is responsible for the communication and log transfer between FortiGate devices and FortiAnalyzer. By using this debug level, administrators can find information including the IP addresses of devices that are sending logs to FortiAnalyzer. Reference: FortiOS 7.4.1 Administration Guide, 'Diagnostic commands' section.
