Reports Configuring reports

	Monthly	Select to generate the report on a specific day or
		days of the month. Enter the days with a comma
		to separate the days. For example, you want to
		generate the report on the first day, the 21st day
		and 30th day: 1, 21, 30.
Log Data Filtering	You can specify the variables that were selected in the charts
	when configuring the report layout.
	If you did not specify any variables in the charts added to report
	layout, proceed to Data Filter.
	Device/Group	Select a device or device group from the list.
	Virtual Domain	Select to create a report based on virtual
		domains. Enter a specific virtual domain to
		include in the report.
	User	Select to create a report based on a network
		user. Enter the user or users in the field.
	Group	Select to create a report based on a group
		network users, defined locally. Enter the name of
		the group or groups in the field.
	LDAP Query	Select the LDAP Query check box and then
		select an LDAP directory or Windows Active
		Directory group from the drop-down list.
Data Filter	Select a data filter template from the drop-down list to the report
	schedule.
Time Period	Local time for:	Select to base the time period on the local time
		of the FortiAnalyzer unit or the selected devices.
		Log time stamps reflect when the FortiAnalyzer
		unit received the message, not when the device
		generated the log message. If you have devices
		located in different time zones, and are creating
		a report layout based on a span of time, ensure
		that the time span is relative to the device, not
		the FortiAnalyzer unit.
		For example, if you have a device and a
		FortiAnalyzer unit located three time zones
		apart, a report for the time frame from 9 AM to 11
		AM will yield different results depending on
		whether the report time frame is relative to the
		device’s local time, or to the FortiAnalyzer unit’s
		local time.
	From:	Select the beginning date and time of the log
		time range.
	To:	Select the ending date and time of the log time
		range
Output	Select the type of output you want the report to be in and if you
	want to apply an output template as well.
	Output Types	Select the type of file format you want the
		generated report to be. You can choose from
		PDF, HTML (default), MS Word, Text, and MHT.
		Note: Only those file formats that are enabled in
		both output template and schedule output types
		are sent by email. For example, if PDF and Text
		formats are selected in the output template, and
		then PDF and MHT are selected in the report
		schedule, the report’s file format in the email
		attachment is PDF.
	Email/Upload	Select the check box if you want to apply a
		report output template from the drop-down list.
