To configure FortiBridge syslog
In most cases you should only need to configure the IP address of the syslog
server to receive FortiBridge syslog messages. See “log syslogd setting” on
page 54 for more FortiBridge syslog options.
1 Log into the CLI.
2 Configure syslog settings. Enter:
config log syslogd setting
set server 172.20.120.11
end
FortiBridge SNMP
If you set the probe action on failure to snmp, you can configure FortiBridge SNMP
settings so that the FortiBridge unit sends SNMP v1 and v2c compliant traps to
SNMP v1 and v2c compliant SNMP managers if the FortiBridge unit detects a
failure. The traps inform the recipient that a FortiGate unit has failed and include
the protocol for which the failure was detected.
Only the first probe to detect a failure triggers the actions on failure. So, even if
multiple probes are configured, when a failure is detected, the FortiBridge unit
sends one v1 SNMP trap and one v2c SNMP trap.
Configure FortiBridge SNMP by adding and configuring an SNMP community. An
SNMP community is a grouping of equipment for network administration
purposes. You can add up to three SNMP communities. Each community can
have a different configuration for SNMP traps. You can add the IP addresses of up
to 8 SNMP managers to each community.
