Fortinet 525 FortiWeb 5.0 Patch 6 Administration Guide
Monitoring your system
“Secure” is an action, an ongoing way to behave; it is not a set-and-forget device.
Each day, vulnerabilities, known exploits, and best practices can change.
Knowledge is power.
To get the most value out of your FortiWeb appliance, use it to keep informed about your
network — not just to protect it. FortiWeb appliances have many tools that you can use to
monitor statuses, traffic, and attacks. You can also use them to discover new web server
vulnerabilities.

The dashboard

System > Status > Status appears when you log in to the web UI. It contains a dashboard with
widgets that each indicate performance level or other system statuses.
Each day, check the dashboard for obvious problems.
By default, the dashboard contains the following widgets:
System Information widget
FortiGuard Information widget
CLI Console widget
System Resources widget
Attack Log Console widget
Real Time Monitor widget
Event Log Console widget
Server Status widget
Policy Sessions widget
Operation widget
