Log format
A log listed here consists of three parts:
{TIMESTAMP} {LOG_TYPE} {LOG_CONTENT}
The {TIMESTAMP} is in the format ‘yyyy-mm-dd HH:MM:SS’ and is always an UTC time. The details of {LOG_ TYPE} and {LOG_CONTENT} are described as follows.
Notation Conventions
{ADDRPORT} follows TCPDUMP format, for example:
- IPv4: 8.8.8.80 l IPv6: 2001::8:8:8:8.80 {IP-5-TUPLE}
- ICMP:PROTO=1 SRC=<ip> DST=<ip> ID=<icmpid> TYPE=<icmptype> CODE=<icmpcode> (BM log dones’t have TYPE and CODE fields, because they are bypacket)
- TCP:PROTO=6 SRC=<{ADDRPORT}> DST=<{ADDRPORT}> l UDP:PROTO=17 SRC=<{ADDRPORT}> DST=<{ADDRPORT}> l ICMPv6:PROTO=58 SRC=<ip> DST=<ip> TYPE=<icmpv6type> CODE=<icmpv6code> l Others:PROTO=<protocol num> SRC=<ip> DST=<ip>
Firewall
| FW {IP‐5‐TUPLE} ACTION=[ACCEPT|DENY] TOTLEN=<pktlen> |
| The first packet of session {IP‐5‐TUPLE} matching a Firewall rule triggers the log. System generates only one log for this session. This log indicates all the packets of the session {IP‐5‐TUPLE} are accepted or denied by Firewall, and the first packet size is <pktlen>. In reality, the event ACCEPT will not be logged by system. |
See “Firewall” for further information.
NAT
| NAT {IP‐5‐TUPLE} NEW_SRC={ADDR} |
| The first packet of session {IP‐5‐TUPLE} matching a NAT rule triggers the log. System generates only one log for this session. This log indicates source addresses of the packets of {IP‐5‐TUPLE} are translated to the new address {ADDR} by NAT. |
See “NAT” for further information.
Auto & Persistent Routing
AR {IP‐5‐TUPLE} AR=[<widx>|NONE] TOTLEN=<pktlen>
| The first packet of session {IP‐5‐TUPLE} matching a Auto Routing rule triggers the log. System generates only one log for this session. This log indicates packets of the session {IP‐5‐TUPLE} are transferred outward through WAN link <widx>, or all the WAN links defined in the routing and fail-over policies fail to transfer the packets (AR=NONE). The first packet size of the session is <pktlen>. See “Auto Routing” for further information. |
| PR {IP‐5‐TUPLE} PR=[<widx>|WAIT_AR|NONE] TOTLEN=<pktlen> |
| The first packet of session {IP‐5‐TUPLE} matching a Persistent Routing rule triggers the log. System generates only one log for this session. This log indicates packets of the session {IP‐5‐TUPLE} are transferred outward through WAN link <widx> (the persistence entry of the session is not expired), or Auto Routing determines the WAN link for the session (PR=WAIT_AR, the persistence entry of the session is expired or absent), or the action to this session is No PR (PR=NONE). The first packet size of the session is <pktlen>. See “Persistent Routing” for further information.
If a PR log that PR=WAIT_AR, the PR log and a correspondent AR log are generated in pairs. |
Virtual Server
| VS {IP‐5‐TUPLE} NEW_DST={ADDR} TOTLEN=<pktlen> |
| The first packet of session {IP‐5‐TUPLE} matching a Virtual Server rule triggers the log. System generates only one log for this session. This log indicates destination addresses of the packets of {IP‐5‐TUPLE} are translated to the new address {ADDR} by Virtual Server. The first packet size of the session is <pktlen>. |
See “Virtual Server” for further information.
BM
| BM {IP‐5‐TUPLE} INPKTS=<%lu> INBYTES=<%lu> OUTPKTS=<%lu> OUTBYTES=<%lu> TOTALPKTS=<%lu> TOTALBYTES=<%lu> DURATION=<%lu>SECS |
| Session {IP‐5‐TUPLE} matching a Bandwidth Management filter triggers the log when it is closed. System generates only one log for this session. This log indicates the traffic statistics (INPKTS, INBYTES, OUTPKTS, OUTBYTES, TOTALPKTS, TOTALBYTES and DURATION) of the session {IP‐5‐TUPLE}. |
See “Bandwidth Management” for further information.
Connection Limit
Count Limit
| CL SRC=<ip> DROP=<pkt_number> |
| This log is triggered every time-period if the number of connections generated by a source SRC=<ip> exceeds the limitation defined in Connection Limit > Count Limit. This log indicates connections generated by SRC=<ip> and passing through FortiWAN are more that the limitation, and there are <pkt_number> packets are dropped for the reason. |
Rate Limit
| RL RULE=<ridx> DROP=<pkt_number> |
| This log is triggered every time-period if a rule <ridx> of Connection Limit > Rate Limit is matched. This log indicates connections defined in the Rate Limit rule <ridx> are generated in a rate higher than the limitation, and there are <pkt_number> packets are dropped for the reason. |
See “Connection Limit” for further information.
Cache Redirect
| CR {IP‐5‐TUPLE} NEW_DST={ADDR‐PORT} |
| The first packet of session {IP‐5‐TUPLE} matching a Cache Redirect rule triggers the log. System generates only one log for this session. This log indicates destination addresses and ports of the packets of {IP‐5‐TUPLE} are translated to {ADDR} by Virtual Server. The first packet size of the session is <pktlen>. |
See “Cache Redirect” for further information.
Multihoming
| MH FROM=<ip> TYPE=<A|AAAA> WLINK=<widx> REPLY=<ip> |
| An DNS response (queried for A or AAAA records) by Multihoming triggers the log. System generates the log only for DNS queries for A and AAAA records. This log indicates a DNS query whose type is TYPE=<A|AAAA> and comes from FROM=<ip> is responded by Multihoming with REPLY=<ip>, which is the IP address of WAN link <widx>.
System generates two logs for A and AAAA records if the DNS query type is ANY. |
See “Multihoming” for further information.
Dynamic IP
DHCP
| DHCP WLINK=<widx> ACTION=<init|renew|rebind|expired|failed|release|stop|bind> [IP=<ip>] |
| System triggers the log when a DHCP WAN link <widx> is acted for ACTION. ACTION=bind and IP=<ip> must be generated in pairs for a log. |
PPPoE
PPPOE WLINK=<widx> ACTION=<start|terminated|bind> [IP=<ip>]
| System triggers the log when a PPPoE WAN link <widx> is acted for ACTION. ACTION=bind and IP=<ip> must be generated in pairs for a log. Three more logs are introduced when a PPPoE WAN link goes to failure:
l PPPOE config‐requests timeout l PPPOE connection no response l PPPOE authentication failed |
IP-MAC Mapping
| MAC {IP‐5‐TUPLE} BAD_SRC_MAC=<MAC> |
| The first packet of session {IP‐5‐TUPLE} blocked by IP-MAC Mapping triggers the log. System generates only one log for this session. This log indicates source MAC addresses <MAC> of the packets of {IP‐5‐TUPLE} and the MAC address defined in IP-MAC table are mismatched, and so that the packets are blocked. |
| MAC {IP‐5‐TUPLE} BAD_DST_MAC=<MAC> |
| The first packet of session {IP‐5‐TUPLE} blocked by IP-MAC Mapping triggers the log. System generates only one log for this session. This log indicates destination MAC addresses <MAC> of the packets of {IP‐5‐TUPLE} and the MAC address defined in IP-MAC table are mismatched, and so that the packets are blocked. |
See “IP-MAC Mapping” for further information.
Tunnel Routing
| TR {IP‐5‐TUPLE} GROUP=<group name> TOTLEN=<pktlen> |
| The first packet of session {IP‐5‐TUPLE} being transferred by Tunnel Routing triggers the log. System generates only one log for this session. This log indicates packets of {IP‐5‐TUPLE} are transferred through the Tunnel Group <group name>, and the first packet size of the session is <pktlen>. |
| TUN FROM=<ip> TO=<ip> ACTION=<start|stop|fail|recover> |
| This log is triggered when a single GRE tunnel FROM=<ip> TO=<ip> is acted for actions ACTION. |
See “Tunnel Routing” for further information.
IPSec
| ISAKMP-SA <established|expired|deleted> <LOCAL_IP_PORT>-<REMOTE_IP_PORT> |
| An ISAKMP SA between <LOCAL_IP_PORT> and <REMOTE_IP_PORT> is established, expired or deleted. |
| IPsec-SA <established|expired>: ESP/<Transport|Tunnel> <LOCAL_IP_PORT>-><REMOTE_ IP_PORT> |
| A Transport mode or Tunnel mode IPSec SA between <LOCAL_IP_PORT> and <REMOTE_IP_PORT> is established or expired. |
| <initiate|respond> new phase <1|2> negotiation: <LOCAL_IP_PORT><=><REMOTE_IP_ PORT> |
| After an ISAKMP SA or IPSec SA is expired, new IKE phase 1 or 2 negotiation between <LOCAL_IP_PORT> and <REMOTE_IP_PORT> is initiated or responded. |
| NOTIFY: the packet is retransmitted by <IP_PORT> |
| Packets of IKE negotiation are retransmitted due to the failure in authentication (pre-shared keys of the two entities might not be correspondent with each other). |
| <IP> INFO: request for establishing IPsec-SA was queued due to no phase1 found. |
| Request for establishing IPSec SA from <IP> was queued due to the failure in phase 1 negotiation (Phase 1 proposals of the two entities might not be correspondent with each other). |
| <IP> INFO: received INITIAL-CONTACT |
| <IP> received the request for negotiation from the peer. |
| ERROR: phase1 negotiation failed due to time up. |
| A queued or retransmitted phase 1 negotiation is declared to failure because the time is up. |
| <IP> ERROR: notification NO-PROPOSAL-CHOSEN received in informational exchange. |
| <IP> does not receive any proposal in the phase 2 negotiation messages (Phase 2 proposals of the two entities might not be correspondent with each other). |
