Device interaction with a FortiAnalyzer unit
FortiGate, FortiManager and Syslog devices use the syslog protocol, sending log
packets using udp port 514,when sending log packets to the FortiAnalyzer unit.
When the FortiAnalyzer unit receives the packet, the FortiAnalyzer unit adds the
device to the list of unregistered devices.
Maximum allowed devices
Each FortiAnalyzerunit has a maximum number of device licenses it can support
and still provide effective logging and reporting capabilities. The following table
details these maximums.
