When Security Fabric is enabled on FortiGate, FortiAnalyzer requires using an administrator account on the FortiGate to query the FortiGate for Security Fabric-related information.

Fortinet recommends using a dedicated Super_User administrator account on the FortiGate for FortiAnalyzer access. This ensures that associated log messages are identified as originating from FortiAnalyzer activity. This dedicated Super_User administrator account only needs Read Only access to System Configuration; all other access can be set to None.
