Monitoring your network using client reputation

Client reputation allows you to monitor traffic as it flows through your FortiGate unit
to identify users who may be engaging in risky or dangerous behavior. A variety
of different areas can be monitored, depending on what concerns you have about
activity on your network. In this example, particular attention will be given to any
traffic containing peer-to-peer (P2P) downloading.
Client reputation only monitors risky activity, it does not block it. If you discover activity that you are concerned about,
additional action must be taken to stop it, such as applying a more restrictive security policy to the traffic.
