FTP/TFTP Policy

Hi

We have fortiweb 1000D and upgrade firmware to 5.6.1

we want to archive local log(Store in fortiweb internal hard disk) in remote Site

in this version fortiweb add ftp/tftp Policy in Log & report menu but when create ftp we do not assign it for any kind of log

and we can use ftp policy only for archive config log

I want to find best solution for archive all log in remote host?

we do not have fortianalyzer

thanks

My understanding is that the FTP/TFTP  option is only used for reports.

 

If you goto Log & Report > Report > Report Config you can see the FTP/TFTP option can be selected as an output type.

 

In the Log Options I can't see any FTP/TFP option.

 

I'd recommend using syslog to send logs to an external server if you'd like to have a backup off the box.
