Description

Template to monitor Fortinet Fortigate Firewall System performance parameters like CPU utilization, Memory util!ization, Disk utilization, Active Sessions and Low Memory Utilization. This template is created on FORTINET-FORTIGATE-MIB OIDs and validated on FGT_301E [SysObjId: 1.3.6.1.4.1.12356.101.1.3008].

Prerequisites

SNMP should be enabled in end device and device should support FORTINET-FORTIGATE-MIB and SNMP credentials should be attached against the device in portal.

Metric Parameters

Metric Parameters
ParameterDescription
Frequency
  • Frequency is the interval in which you want to probe and collect metric data from the target device/resource
  • Frequency is defined in minutes (min).
    • Warning ThresholdIf the metric value satisfies the condition defined along with Warning Threshold value, then a notification is sent to the user.
    Critical ThresholdIf the metric value satisfies the condition defined along with Critical Threshold value, then a notification is sent to the user.
    AlertThe alert value can be set to either Yes or No. If it is Yes, then an alert message is sent to the user.
