Access Profile
An Access Profile is the group of access rights assigned to an administrator. You
can create any number of access profiles that you assign to administrators. For
each profile, you can define what access privileges are granted. For example, you
can have a profile where the administrator only has read and write access to the
reports, or assign read-only access to the content archive logs. Only one access
profile can by assigned to any given administrator.

and netmask 0.0.0.0. To limit the administrator to only access the
FortiAnalyzer unit from a specific network, enter that network’s IP
and netmask.

access permissions and save them as access profiles. For more
