D./phnfsstat.

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: B

FortiSIEM Linux Agent: The FortiSIEM Linux agent is used to collect logs and performance metrics from Linux servers and send them to the FortiSIEM system.

Prerequisite for Installation: The auditd service, which is the Linux Audit Daemon, must be installed and running on the Linux server to capture and log security-related events.

auditd Service: This service collects and logs security events on Linux systems, which are essential for monitoring and analysis by FortiSIEM.

Importance of auditd: Without the auditd service, the FortiSIEM Linux agent will not be able to collect the necessary event data from the Linux server.

Reference: FortiSIEM 6.3 User Guide, Linux Agent Installation section, which lists the prerequisites and steps for installing the FortiSIEM Linux agent.

Hmm, I thought D) ./phnfsstat was the way to go, but I guess I misread the question. Time to brush up on my FortiSlEM knowledge!
