Fortinet module

edit

Fortinet module

edit

This is a module for Fortinet logs sent in the syslog format. It supports the following devices:

firewall fileset: Supports FortiOS Firewall logs.

To configure a remote syslog destination, please reference the Fortigate/FortiOS Documentation.

The syslog format choosen should be Default.

Read the quick start to learn how to configure and run modules.

Compatibility

edit

This module has been tested against FortiOS version 6.0.x and 6.2.x. Versions above this are expected to work but have not been tested.

Configure the module

edit

You can further refine the behavior of the fortinet module by specifying variable settings in the modules.d/fortinet.yml file, or overriding settings at the command line.

You must enable at least one fileset in the module. Filesets are disabled by default.

Variable settings

edit

Each fileset has separate variable settings for configuring the behavior of the module. If you don’t specify variable settings, the fortinet module uses the defaults.

For advanced use cases, you can also override input settings. See Override input settings.

When you specify a setting at the command line, remember to prefix the setting with the module name, for example, fortinet.firewall.var.paths instead of firewall.var.paths.

`firewall` fileset settings

edit

- module: fortinet
  firewall:
    enabled: true
    var.input: udp
    var.syslog_host: 0.0.0.0
    var.syslog_port: 9004

var.paths: An array of glob-based paths that specify where to look for the log files. All patterns supported by Go Glob are also supported here. For example, you can use wildcards to fetch all files from a predefined level of subdirectories: /path/to/log/*/*.log. This fetches all .log files from the subfolders of /path/to/log. It does not fetch log files from the /path/to/log folder itself. If this setting is left empty, Filebeat will choose log paths based on your operating system.

Time zone support

edit

This module parses logs that don’t contain time zone information. For these logs, Filebeat reads the local time zone and uses it when parsing to convert the timestamp to UTC. The time zone to be used for parsing is included in the event in the event.timezone field.

To disable this conversion, the event.timezone field can be removed with the drop_fields processor.

If logs are originated from systems or applications with a different time zone to the local one, the event.timezone field can be overwritten with the original time zone using the add_fields processor.

See Processors for information about specifying processors in your config.

var.input: The input to use, can be either the value tcp, udp or file.
var.syslog_host: The interface to listen to all syslog traffic. Defaults to localhost. Set to 0.0.0.0 to bind to all available interfaces.
var.syslog_port: The port to listen for syslog traffic. Defaults to 9004.
var.tags: A list of tags to include in events. Including forwarded indicates that the events did not originate on this host and causes host.name to not be added to events. Defaults to [fortinet-firewall, forwarded].
