Configuring FortiDeceptor

FortiDeceptor can be added to the Security Fabric so it appears in the topology views and the dashboard widgets.

FortiDeceptor requires REST API access to FortiGate.

To add FortiDeceptor to the Security Fabric in the GUI:

1. In FortiOS, ensure that FortiGate is prepared to add FortiDeceptor to the Security Fabric. See Preparing FortiGate for supported Security Fabric devices.

2. (Optional) In FortiOS, configure pre-authorization of FortiDeceptor to enable the device to join the Security Fabric as soon as it connects. See Configuring pre-authorization of supported Security Fabric devices.

3. In FortiDeceptor, integrate the device:

   FortiDeceptor instructions are included for convenience. For the latest FortiDeceptor instructions, see the FortiDeceptor Administration Guide.

   1. Go to Fabric > Quarantine Integration.

   2. Click Quarantine Integration With New Device.

   3. Click the toggle to enable the device.

   4. For Upstream IP Address, enter the root FortiGate's management IP address.

      

   5. Click Apply.

4. In FortiOS, authorize the FortiDeceptor. See Authorizing supported connectors.

   If FortiDeceptor is pre-authorized, you can skip this step.
