Configuring virus and attack definition updates
You can configure the FortiGate unit to automatically check to see if new versions of
the virus definitions and attack definitions are available. If it finds new versions, the
FortiGate unit automatically downloads and installs the updated definitions.
The FortiGate unit uses HTTPS on port 8890 to check for updates. The FortiGate
external interface must have a path to the FortiResponse Distribution Network (FDN)
using port 8890.

“Updating antivirus and attack
definitions” on page 71
