Enabling updates through a web proxy

FortiAnalyzer is able to connect to the FDS/FGD server through a web proxy.

You can specify the IP address and port of the proxy server. If the proxy requires authentication, you can also specify a user name and password.

FortiAnalyzer can only have one proxy server configuration.

To enable updates to FortiAnalyzer through a proxy using the CLI:

Use the following command in the FortiAnalyzer CLI:

config system web-proxy

set status enable

set mode {proxy | tunnel} (default = tunnel)

set address <string>

set password <passwd>

set port <integer>

set username <string>

end

Tunnel mode (default) uses port TCP/443. Proxy mode uses port TCP/80.

For more information about the variables, see the FortiAnalyzer CLI Reference.

This feature cannot be configured in the FortiAnalyzer GUI.
