You can configure the FortiAnalyzer unit to connect to the FortiProtect Distribution
Network (FDN) to update the IPS attack definitions for the vulnerability scanner.
The FDN is a world-wide network of FortiProtect Distribution Servers (FDSs).
When the FortiAnalyzer unit connects to the FDN it connects to the nearest FDS.
To do this, all FortiAnalyzer units are programmed with a list of FDS addresses
sorted by nearest time zone according to the time zone configured for the
FortiAnalyzer unit.
The FortiAnalyzer unit supports the following definition update features:
• User-initiated updates from the FDN,
• Hourly, daily, or weekly scheduled antivirus and attack definition updates from
the FDN,
• Update status including version numbers, expiry dates, and update dates and
times,
To receive scheduled updates and push updates, you must register the
FortiAnalyzer unit on the Fortinet support web page.
