The log browser enables you to see all stored log files for all devices and
FortiAnalyzer logs. In this window, you can view the log information, download log
files to your hard disk or delete unneeded files.
To browse the log files, go to Log > Browse.
Figure 25: Browsing log files
Search Enter a keyword to perform a simple search on the log information
available. Select Go to begin the search. The number of matches
appears above the Search field.
The FortiAnalyzer unit will search the entire log file for the keyword
you enter.
Printable Version Select to generate a report that captures the current log
messages. The web browser prompts you to save the report file
for viewing or printing. The report saved is in HTML format. Note
that large log messages can take a long time to load.
The printable version takes all filter settings into account when
generating a printable version.
Note: Searches using characters will not include results from the Traffic logs. Traffic logs
include information for source and destination IP addresses and ports which is strictly
numerical information.
For example, if you are searching on User1, you may get results for User1, however, none
of the results will include entries from the Traffic log. To get results from the traffic log, you
must search on the IP address of User1. For example, 10.10.10.1.
Device Type Select a device category to view its related log files.
Import Select to import older log files to view and run log reports. For details on
importing log files see “Importing a log file” on page 82.
Log files A list of available log files. Any device groups you create also appear
here. Select the group name to expand the list of devices within the
group.
The current, or active, log file appears as well as rolled log files. Rolled
log files include a number in the file name. For example, alog.2.log. If
you configure the FortiAnalyzer unit to upload rolled logs to an FTP site,
only the current log will appear in the log browser.
