For some report types, you can set the top ranked items for the report. These
reports have “Top” in their name, and will always display only the top
n entries. For
example, report on the most active mail clients within the organization rather than
all mail clients.
Reports that do not include “Top” in their name will always display all information.
Changing the values for top field will not affect these reports.
Configuring the report schedule
Set a schedule when the FortiAnalyzer unit generates the reports. Choose a
recurring schedule. For example, to generate weekly reports on mail traffic.
