Adding devices using the wizard
This section describes how to add model devices and VDOMs to the FortiAnalyzer using zero-touch provisioning (ZTP).
When using the Add Device wizard, model devices added to the FortiAnalyzer unit using a serial number are authorized and are ready to begin sending logs. When a FortiGate model is configured using a pre-shared key, you must also configure the key on the device itself before it will be authorized on FortiAnalyzer.
To add devices using the wizard:
- If using ADOMs, ensure that you are in the correct ADOM.
- Go to Device Manager and click Add Device.
The Add Device wizard opens. You can add devices by serial number or pre-shared key.
- Configure the following settings:
Name
Type a name for the device.
Link Device By
Select Serial Number or Pre-shared Key.
Depending on your selection, the device model will automatically link to a real device by serial number or configured pre-shared key.
Serial Number
Enter the device's serial number.
Pre-shared Key
Enter a pre-shared key for the device. If using a pre-shared key, each device must have a unique pre-shared key
Only FortiGate devices can be added to FortiAnalyzer using a pre-shared key. You must also configure this pre-shared key on the corresponding FortiGate device. See Configuring a pre-shared key on FortiGate
Device Model
Select the model of the device from the dropdown.
Description
Type a description of the device (optional).
- Click Next.
The device is added to the ADOM and, if successful, is ready to begin sending logs to the FortiAnalyzer unit.
- Click Finish to finish adding the device and close the wizard.
Configuring a pre-shared key on FortiGate
When configuring a FortiGate model device on FortiAnalyzer using a pre-shared key, the pre-shared key must also be configured on FortiGate using the following CLI commands. This can be done after the FortiGate has been configured to send logs to FortiAnalyzer in Log & Report > Log Settings.
To configure a pre-shared key on FortiGate:
- In the FortiGate CLI, enter the following commands.
config log fortianalyzer setting
set preshared-key <pre-shared key>
