Alert Messages Console widget

The Alert Message Console widget displays log-based alert messages for both the FortiAnalyzer unit itself and connected devices.

Alert messages help you track system events on your FortiAnalyzer unit such as firmware changes, and network events such as detected attacks. Each message shows the date and time the event occurred.

Alert messages can also be delivered by email, syslog, or SNMP.

Click Edit from the widget toolbar to view the Alert Message Console Settings, where you can adjust the number of entries that are visible in the widget, and the refresh interval.

To view a complete list of alert messages, click Show More from the widget toolbar. The widget will show the complete list of alerts. To clear the list, click Delete All Messages. Click Show Less to return to the previous view.
