This guide describes the steps required to configure Fortinet FortiWeb to send logs to a Samurai Local Collector deployed on your network. FortiWeb requires access to the Local Collector via syslog on port 514/UDP.
If you have deployed a FortiAnalyzer, please refer to the Fortinet FortiAnalyzer integration guide.
1) From FortiWeb console:
We reference version 7.0.4 documentation, be sure to select the version applicable to your FortiWeb
For more information on FortiWeb logging refer to Fortinet documentation ‘Logging’.

For integrations that utilize a Local Collector where we ingest syslog only, you do not need to follow specific steps in the Samurai MDR portal as we auto detect the vendor and product. The only reason you need to use the Samurai MDR portal is if you need to determine the Local Collector IP address. Of course you will still need to ensure the integration is functioning! See Integrations for more information on checking status.
Our Integration guide was accurate at the time of writing but vendors change things frequently! If you find errors or anything is outdated, let us know by raising a request in the Samurai MDR application and we shall get it updated.
