MMS notifications
MMS notifications to senders are configured in Security Profiles > MMS Profile, under MMS Notifications.
In this section you can configure up to four different notification recipients for any combination of MM1/3/4/7 protocol MMS messages. Also for MM7 messages the message type can be submit.REQ or deliver.REQ.
Useful settings include:
l delay in message based on notification type l limit on notifications per second to prevent a flood l schedules for notifications l log in details for MM7 messages.
For more information on MMS notifications, see Notifying message flood senders and receivers and MMS
Notifications.
Replacement messages
Replacement messages are features common to both FortiOS and FortiOS Carrier, however FortiOS Carrier has additional messages for the MMS traffic.
While each MMS protocol has its own different rec placement messages, the one common to all MMS protocols is the MMS blocked content replacement message. This is the message that the receiver of the message sees when their content is blocked.
MMS DLP archiving
MMS DLP archiving
You can use DLP archiving to collect and view historical logs that have been archived to a FortiAnalyzer unit or the
FortiGuard Analysis and Management service. DLP archiving is available for FortiAnalyzer when you add a FortiAnalyzer unit to the FortiOS Carrier configuration. The FortiGuard Analysis and Management server becomes available when you subscribe to the FortiGuard Analysis and Management Service.
You can configure full DLP archiving and summary DLP archiving. Full DLP archiving includes all content, for example, full email DLP archiving includes complete email messages and attachments. Summary DLP archiving includes just the meta data about the content, for example, email message summary records include only the email header.
You can archive MM1, MM3, MM4, and MM7 content.
Configuring MMS DLP archiving
Select DLP archive options to archive MM1, MM3, MM4, and MM7 sessions. For each protocol you can archive just session metadata (Summary), or metadata and a copy of the associated file or message (Full).
In addition to MMS protection profile DLP archive options you can:
- Archive MM1 and MM7 message floods l Archive MM1 and MM7 duplicate messages
- Select DLP archiving for carrier endpoint patterns in a Carrier Endpoint List and select the Carrier Endpoint Block option in the MMS Scanning section of an MMS Protection Profile
FortiOS Carrier only allows one sixteenth of its memory for transferring content archive files. For example, for Carrier-enabled FortiGate units with 128MB RAM, only 8MB of memory is used when transferring content archive files. Best practices dictate to not enable full content archiving if antivirus scanning is also configured because of these memory constraints.
