In aFortiSIEM deployment,device discoveryis handled by theSupervisor, even when aCollectoris present.

● TheSupervisor initiates active scansusing protocols such asSNMP, WMI, SSH, and API queriesto discover devices in the network.

●Collectors do not perform discovery; they primarilycollect and forward logsfrom designated devices to the Supervisor.

●Workers handle event processing, not discovery.

From the provided XML configuration, we need to focus on the section, which defines the attributes used for grouping.

In theSelectClause, the following attributes are listed:

reptDevName, reptDevAddr, COUNT(*), COUNT(DISTINCT user), COUNT(DISTINCT srcIpAddr)

●reptDevNamerepresents thereporting device.

●reptDevAddrrepresents thereporting IP.

●COUNT(DISTINCT user)tracks unique users.

●COUNT(DISTINCT srcIpAddr)tracks distinct source IPs.

In theGroupByAttrsection:

reptDevName, reptDevAddr

This confirms that the grouping is performed byReporting Device (reptDevName)andReporting IP (reptDevAddr).

In the exhibit, the "Clear If" condition does not specify a condition for auto-clearing the incident. If an incident does not have a specific clear condition, it remains active until manually resolved or cleared by another process.
