The system health information includes memory usage, the number of active
communication sessions, and the amount of network bandwidth currently in use. The
web-based manager displays current statistics as well as statistics for the previous
minute.
If the FortiGate unit contains a hard disk, the system status monitor displays the
capacity of the hard disk and the amount of used and free space on the hard disk.
You can also view current virus and intrusion status. The web-based manager
displays the current number of viruses and attacks as well as a graph of virus and
attack levels over the previous 20 hours.
In each case you can set an automatic refresh interval that updates the display every
5 to 30 seconds. You can also refresh the display manually.
