The ethernet network interfaces on the FortiGate unit. The names
and number of these interfaces vary with your unit.
The icon below the interface name indicates its status by its color.
Green indicates the interface is connected. Grey indicates there is
no connection.
For more information about the configuration and status of an
interface, pause the mouse over the icon for that interface. The full
name of the interface, the alias if one is configured, the IP address
and netmask, the status of the link, the speed of the interface, and
the number of sent and received packets is displayed.
If your FortiGate unit supports ASM modules and if you have
installed an ASM module containing interfaces (for example, the
FortiGate-ASM-FB4 contains 4 interfaces) these interfaces are
added to the interface status display. The interfaces are named
AMC/1, AMC/2, and so on.
The icon on the link between the FortiGate unit graphic and the
FortiAnalyzer graphic indicates the status of their connection. An
‘X’ on a red icon indicates there is no connection. A check mark on
a green icon indicates there is communication between the two
units.
Select the FortiAnalyzer graphic to configure FortiAnalyzer logging
on your FortiGate unit. See “Log&Report” on page 469.

prompted to enter a reason for the reboot that will be entered into

Select to shutdown the FortiGate unit. You will be prompted for
