Configuring the FortiLog unit

When you configure a device to send logs to the FortiLog unit, an entry for the device appears automatically in the Unregistered Devices tab.

Adding a device

The Devices screen provides a easy access to all devices currently sending log files to the FortiLog unit. It also provides a way to add unregistered or other new devices to the FortiLog unit so it can receive log files.
