SSO

SSO

FortiAuthenticator can monitor the units that make up FSSO. This is useful to ensure there is a connection to the different components when troubleshooting.

Domains

To monitor SSO domains, go to Monitor > SSO > Domains. Select Refresh to refresh the domain list. Select Expand All to expand all of the listed domains, or Collapse All to collapse the view.

All configured domain controllers appear in the domain list. Each domain controller is displayed in:

  • green if the last connection attempt was successful.
  • gray if no recent connection information is available.
  • red if the last connection attempt failed.

Hold the pointer over a domain controller to view the status of the last LDAP query, how long ago it was, and the LDAP query's response time in milliseconds (ms). This response time will show a warning icon if the highest recent response time is above 500 ms.

In addition, you can click on the domain controller entry to view statistics for the 100-most recent LDAP queries. The listed response times are color coordinated as follows: green for less than 500 ms, orange for between 500 and 1000 ms, and red for more than, or equal to, 1000 ms.
