5 Enter the IP address of the FortiAnalyzer unit.
6 Select Apply.
The FortiAnalyzer unit needs to be configured to receive logs from the FortiGate unit
after you have configured log settings on the FortiGate unit. Contact a FortiAnalyzer
administrator to complete the configuration.
Testing the FortiAnalyzer configuration
After configuring FortiAnalyzer settings, test the connection between the FortiGate unit
and FortiAnalyzer unit to verify both devices are communicating properly. During testing,
the FortiGate unit displays information about specific settings for transmitting and
receiving logs, reports, DLP archive and quarantine files.
The FortiGate unit must learn the IP address of the FortiAnalyzer unit before testing the
connection. A false test report failure may result if testing the connection occurs before the
FortiGate unit learns the IP address of the FortiAnalyzer unit.
To test the connection, go to Log&Report > Log Config > Log Setting, expand Remote
Logging options, and then select Test Connectivity.

devices, using a Syslog server or WebTrends server is preferred.
