What is the main function of the Fabric View module?

The primary function of the Fabric View module is to create fabric connectors and view the list of endpoints. This module is essential for establishing a comprehensive overview of the security architecture within a Fortinet Security Fabric. By utilizing fabric connectors, users can integrate various Fortinet and third-party solutions to enhance visibility and interaction among different components of the network security environment.

In this context, the Fabric View provides insight into all connected devices, allowing administrators to monitor and assess endpoint statuses, health, and security posture across the entire network. This holistic view facilitates better-informed decision-making and helps optimize the overall security setup.

In contrast, other functions like analyzing network traffic patterns, managing user permissions and roles, or configuring firewall rules serve different purposes and are typically covered in other modules or areas of the Fortinet ecosystem. They do not directly pertain to the core functionalities offered by the Fabric View module itself.
