Fortinet's FortiGate is a next-generation firewall that covers both traditional and wireless traffic. The hardware-based firewall can function as an IPS and include SSL inspection and web filtering. This technology pack will process Fortigate event log messages, providing normalization and enrichment of common events of interest.

Requirement(s)

  • Fortigate running FortiOS Version 7.0 or later
  • Graylog Server with a valid Operations license, running Graylog version 4.2.5 or later
Warning: This spotlight requires a more recent version of Graylog than the other spotlights due to a change in how some of the extraction functions work. Fields will be improperly processed if using a version of Graylog Server earlier than version 4.2.5.

Not Supported

  • Sending Fortigate logs with the CEF format

Stream Configuration

This technology pack includes one stream:

  • “Illuminate: Fortigate Messages”

Hint: If this stream does not exist prior to the activation of this pack then it will be created and configured to route messages to this stream and the associated index set. There should not be any stream rules configured for this stream.

Index Set Configuration

This technology pack includes one index set definition:

  • “Fortinet Event Log Messages”

Hint: If this index set is already defined, then nothing will be changed. If this index set does not exist, then it will be created with retention settings of a daily rotation and 90 days of retention. These settings can be adjusted as required after installation.
