FortiView interface

 

Realtime visualization

To enable realtime visualization:

1. Click on the Settings icon next to the upper right-hand corner and select Auto update realtime visualizations.

An option is displayed to set the Interval (seconds). The maximum value is 300.

2. Enter a desired Interval and click Apply.

 

Accelerated sessions

When viewing sessions in the All Sessions console, information pertaining to NP4/ NP6 acceleration is now reflected via an appropriate icon in the table. The tooltip for the icon includes the NP chip type and its total number of accelerated sessions.

 

Filtering on accelerated sessions

You can filter the console on ‘FortiASIC’ (‘Accelerated’ versus ‘Not Accelerated’) sessions.

 

WHOIS Lookup anchor for public IPv4 addresses

A Reverse IP lookup is possible using the WHOIS lookup icon available when you mouse over a public IP address in a FortiView log. If you left-click on the lookup icon, a new tab is opened in your browser for www.networksolutions.com, and a lookup is performed on the selected IP address (this option persists after drilling down one level in FortiView).
