Layout & schedule
FortiSRA allows you to customize reports to display attributes according to your preference and schedule generation of reports.
The Layout & Schedule tab looks like the following:
|
A default layout and schedule is available. The default layout and schedule generates a comprehensive report daily at 12:00 AM (midnight) with information on user login, system, and secret. This report is only available on FortiSRA and is not sent out as an email. |
By using filters, you now only keep relevant information in the report. The Add Filter dropdown shows available filter types for a table.
You can add the same or different filters multiple times.
Note that using the same filter generates union (or) results while different filters generate intersection (and) results.
