system eventhub

When FortiWeb-VM is deployed on Azure, use this command to manually configure the FortiWeb appliance to send log messages to Azure Event Hubs.

Alternatively, you can create the configuration automatically using a PowerShell script. For details, see the FortiWeb-VM Azure Install Guide:

HTTPs://docs.fortinet.com/fortiweb/hardware

When the event hub configuration is complete, FortiWeb sends health logs to Azure Event Hub.

If you also create a corresponding Azure CEF SIEM policy (see log siem-policy), FortiWeb also sends security logs to Azure Event Hub.

This command is available for FortiWeb-VM running on Microsoft Azure only.

You can use the Azure classic portal to obtain the values that the config system eventhub settings require. For detailed instructions, see the FortiWeb-VM Azure Install Guide:

HTTPs://docs.fortinet.com/fortiweb/hardware

To use this command, your administrator account’s access control profile must have either w or rw permission to the sysgrp area. For details, see Permissions.
