In order to access the FortiDB MA Report Manager module, click on the Report
Manager link on the left-side navigator on the main FortiDB MA screen.
The FortiDB MA Report Manager module offers:
•
Alert Reports to summarize your alert data
•
Custom Reports to enable you to design your own reports
Due to the potential for a large number of alerts to accumulate in your system, the
Alert Report Manager (ARM) enables you to create reports that organize the alert
information. You filter and sort this information by:
1
•
Severity Level
(critical, informational, etc.)
•
Status (handled or not)
•
Database connection
•
Type of rule (PDR or UDR)
•
Guarded Item Name or Description
•
Alert-Generated Time or Day
ARM can retrieve historical reports and alerts, thus providing a basis for regulatory
or legal compliance. And you can export reports in comma- or tab-delimited format
for further enhancements.
Schedules are either timer-or calendar-based. For a timer-based schedule, you
set a time interval for monitoring. For a calendar-based schedule, you choose to
have the monitoring run at a specific day and/or time. (You can also combine the
two types and randomize the interval you specify.)
To set up a schedule, use the Set Defaults-> Schedule Settings menu.
Setting a Timer-based Schedule
For a Timer-based Schedule:
1
Specify the monitoring Interval or the Time to start scanning
2
Click the Set Timer button
