Viewing the AutoSubmit list
If the FortiGate unit has a local hard disk, you can configure the FortiGate unit to upload
suspicious files automatically to Fortinet for analysis. You can add file patterns to the
AutoSubmit list using wildcard characters (* or ?). File patterns are applied for AutoSubmit
regardless of file blocking settings.
Upload files to Fortinet based on status (blocked or heuristics), or submit individual files
directly from the file quarantine. The FortiGate unit uses encrypted email to autosubmit
files to an SMTP server through port 25.
To view the AutoSubmit list, go to UTM > AntiVirus > AutoSubmit.
The autosubmit feature is not available on the FortiGate models without a local hard disk.
