Fortinet 182 FortiWeb 5.0 Patch 6 Administration Guide
Viewing auto-learning reports
Auto Learn > Auto Learn Report > Auto Learn Report displays the list of reports that the
FortiWeb appliance has automatically generated from information gathered by auto-learning
profiles.
Primarily, auto-learning reports are used to determine whether or not the auto-learning feature
has collected sufficient data to end the auto-learning phase of your installation, and transition to
purely applying your security policies (see “Generating a profile from auto-learning data” on
page 196).
Reports from auto-learning profile data can also inform you about your web servers’ traffic.
To view a report generated from auto-learning data
1. Go to Auto Learn > Auto Learn Report > Auto Learn Report.
To access this part of the web UI, your administrator’s account access profile must have
Read and Write permission to items in the Autolearn Configuration category. For details, see
“Permissions” on page 47.
2. Mark the check box for the report you want to see.
3. Click View.
The report appears, with two panes:
The left-hand pane enables you to navigate through the web sites and URLs that are the
subjects of the report.
The right-hand pane includes tabs that display the report data.
If a report contains multiple pages of results, click the arrows at the bottom of the page to
move forward or backwards through the pages of results.
Sometimes, such as when changing your web servers’ installed web applications, you may
want to run additional phases of auto-learning.
To create a fresh auto-learning report, and/or new protection profiles, you can reset the
auto-learning report and delete its data to use only the most current data. For details, see
“Removing old auto-learning data” on page 200.
Whitelisted items will not be included in auto-learning reports. See “Configuring the global
object white list” on page 464.
Alternatively, for information on normal network traffic, you can use the data analytics feature.
See “Viewing web site statistics” on page 599.
To view auto-learning reports, the Adobe Flash Player browser plug-in is required.
