Visualization support for the Admin Logins page
A useful chart is now generated for Admin login events under FortiView > Admin Logins. You can view the information in either Table View or Timeline View (shown below). In Timeline View, each line represents on administrator, with individual sessions indicated per administrator line. When you hover over a particular timeline, detailed information appears in a tooltip.
New bandwidth column added to realtime FortiView pages
The FortiView console provides a new bandwidth column that displays information for bandwidth calculated on a per-session level, providing administrators the ability to sort realtime bandwidth usage in descending order.
Accelerated session filtering on All Sessions page
By default, on a FortiGate unit with NP6 processors, when you enable traffic logging in a firewall policy this also enables NP6 per-session accounting. If you disable traffic logging this also disables NP6 per-session accounting. This behavior can be changed using the following command:
config system np6 edit np6_0
set per-session-accounting {disable | all-enable | enable-by-log}
end
By default, per-session-accounting is set to enable-by-log, which results in per-session accounting being turned on when you enable traffic logging in a policy. This configuration is set separately for each NP6 processor.
When offloaded sessions appear on the FortiView All Sessions console they include an icon identifying them as NP sessions:
You can hover over the NP icon to see some information about the offloaded sessions. You can also use a FortiASIC Filter to view just the accelerated sessions.
