Monitoring traffic load
Heavy traffic loads can cause sustained high CPU or RAM usage. If this is unusual, no action may be required, unless you are being subject to a DoS attack. Sustained heavy traffic load may indicate that you need a more powerful model of FortiWeb.
In the FortiWeb appliance's web UI, you can view traffic load two ways:
Monitor current HTTP traffic on the dashboard. Go to System > Status > Status and examine the graphs in the Policy Summary widget.
Examine traffic history in the traffic log. Go to Logs&Report > Log Access > Traffic.
