log traffic-log
Use this command to have the FortiWeb appliance record traffic log messages on its local disk. This command also lets you save packet payloads with the traffic logs.

Packet payloads supplement the log message by providing the actual data associated with the traffic log, which may help you to analyze traffic patterns.
You can view packet payloads in the Packet Log column when viewing a traffic logs using the web UI. For details, see the FortiWeb Administration Guide:
