Defining device port interfaces
FortiLog Network activity log reports include information on inbound and outbound
traffic flow. Traffic flow information is based on the source and destination interfaces
of the device and how they are configured to send and receive information.
To ensure that the traffic information is represented correctly in these reports, you
need to assign the FortiGate interfaces to an interface type. The device interface can
include an interface name or a defined VLAN on the device.
