Install & Setup | FortiAnalyzer | on Hyper-V VM with create a virtual machine | Fortigate Firewall |

Configuring FortiAnalyzer on a Hyper-V VM involves a series of steps including creating a virtual machine (VM), installing the FortiAnalyzer software, and configuring its network settings. Here's a general outline of the process:
Prerequisites:
Make sure you have a Hyper-V host running Windows Server with Hyper-V role installed.
Download the FortiAnalyzer software package from the Fortinet support portal.
Create a Virtual Machine:
Open Hyper-V Manager.
Click on "Action" in the menu and select "New" "Virtual Machine".
Follow the wizard to configure VM settings (memory, CPU, disk space, etc.).
Install FortiAnalyzer:
Attach the FortiAnalyzer ISO or installation media to the VM.
Start the VM and boot from the installation media.
Follow the FortiAnalyzer installation steps (usually involves accepting the license, setting the password, and configuring network settings).
Network Configuration:
Assign a static IP address to the FortiAnalyzer VM. This can be done during the installation process or afterward using the FortiAnalyzer's command-line interface.
Web Interface Access:
Once the FortiAnalyzer is installed and configured, you can access its web-based management interface using a web browser and the assigned IP address.
License Activation:
If required, activate the FortiAnalyzer license through the web interface.
Configure FortiAnalyzer:
Log in to the FortiAnalyzer web interface using the admin credentials.
Configure settings such as logging, storage, security policies, and reporting based on your organization's requirements.
Remember that specific steps might vary based on the version of FortiAnalyzer and Hyper-V you're using. Always refer to the official documentation provided by Fortinet for the most accurate and up-to-date instructions.
Also, ensure that you follow best practices for security and network configurations to protect your FortiAnalyzer deployment and the data it handles.

[@ghruhul]

VMS (Virtual Machines) are often associated with licenses for tracking and managing the number of virtual devices or virtual domains that the FortiAnalyzer can analyze and report. Like Device Count Limitation, Virtual Domains, Resource Allocation, Scaling Flexibility & others on@@nishu1346
