To configure virus, attack, and spam definition updates
You can configure the FortiGate unit to automatically receive new versions of the
virus, attack, and spam definitions on a schedule through the web-based manager.
You can also receive updates whenever a threat occurs by using Push Updates.
1 Go to System > Maintenance > Update Center.
2 Select Refresh to test the FortiGate unit connectivity with the FortiProtect Distribution
Network (FDN).
To be able to connect to the FDN the FortiGate unit default route must point to a

If FortiProtect Distribution Network changes to Available, then the FortiGate unit can
connect to the FDN.

definition updates.

updates.
