Preparing FortiManager and FortiAnalyzer

FortiPortal interacts with FortiManager and FortiAnalyzer. For specific setup configurations, please consult the FortiPortal Administration Guide to optimize CPU usage and memory sizes. Fortinet also recommends contacting your Fortinet Systems Engineer for assistance.

To configure FortiManager to work with FortiPortal:

1. The ADOM mode must be enabled for FortiManager to work with FortiPortal. If needed, enable ADOMs and the advanced adom-mode on FortiManager so that you can add VDOMs on the same physical device to different ADOMs. For example:
   
   

   config system global

   set adom-status enable

   set adom-mode advanced

   y

   end

   
   
2. Create a portal user with read-and-write permission:
   
   

   config system admin user

   edit fpc

   set profileid Super_User

   set adom all_adoms

   set policy-package all_policy_packages

   set password fortinet

   set rpc-permit read-write

   next

   end

   
   
3. The workspace mode must be enabled for FortiManager to work with FortiPortal.
   
   

   config system global

   set workspace-mode normal

   end

   
   
4. In FortiManager, go to the root of the ADOM and then go to System Settings > Network; enable the Web Service option for the administrative access for the system network management interface.
5. Add your FortiManager device using the JSON port. You must poll FortiManager to see the device list. For more information about adding FortiManagers to the portal, see the FortiPortal Administration Guide.

To configure FortiAnalyzer to work with FortiPortal:

1. The ADOM mode must be enabled for FortiAnalyzer to work with FortiPortal. You must enable the interface permission webservice on FortiAnalyzer for the portal-facing interface.
2. You must allow remote procedure calls. Create an admin user for portal:
   
   

   config system admin user

   edit <user_name>

   set rpc-permit read-write

   end
