Set up a Segmented Network

Set up a Segmented Network

FortiSOAR supports segmented networks, enabling secure remote execution of connector actions in multi-segmented environments. If you need to remotely run connector actions, you can use 'FortiSOAR Agents'. These agents support a deployment model that spans across network segments, allowing FortiSOAR—whether hosted on-premises or in the cloud—to securely connect to applications located in other network segments.

To set up an FSR agent, you need to:

  1. Add a Secure Message Exchange (SME).
    An SME establishes a secure channel to relay information to agents or tenant nodes. You can use an externally deployed SME, the default (embedded) SME, or both.
  2. Add the agents to your FortiSOAR instance.
  3. Install the agents.

For details, see the Deploying FSR Agents topic in the "Deployment Guide."
