Policy Hit Count on unused policy 6.4.3

When you run a policy check on a policy package or select the new Find Unused Policies option from the Tools dropdown for a policy package, FortiManager shows hit count information for unused policies with zero hit count.

Note

The Find Unused Policies option is unavailable when classic dual pane is enabled. To disable classic dual pane, go to System Settings > Advanced > Advanced Settings, and set the Display Policy & Object in Classic Dual Pane option to Disable.

To view the hit count information for unused policies using the new Find Unused Policies option:

  2. In the toolbar, from the Tools dropdown, select Find Unused Policies.

    The Unused Policies window opens.

  3. In the tree menu, select the policy package and expand the policy table of your choice in the content pane to see the hit count information.

    For instance, in the figure below, the star-vpn policy package is selected, and the firewall policy table with five policies is expanded.

    There are three unused policies with zero hit counts.

  4. Clear the Unused Only checkbox to view all the policies.

    For example, the figure below displays the hit count information for all the policies including in use policies with ID 4 and 5.

To view hit count information for unused policies in the Policy Check Report:
  1. Go to Policy & Objects > Policy Packages.

    The Policy Check dialog opens.

    For example, in the figure below, the star-vpn policy package is selected for a policy check.

    Once the policy check finishes, the results are displayed in the Policy Check window.

    The Policy Check window displays the hit count information for all the policies in a policy package.
