Which step should be taken to create a new fabric connector?

Creating a new fabric connector involves accessing the specific functionality designed for that purpose within the FortiAnalyzer interface. In this case, the correct approach is to access the fabric view, which provides a dedicated space for managing connectors that link Fortinet devices and other third-party services within the security fabric. Within this view, users can set up and configure new connectors that facilitate the transfer of logs and data, enhancing visibility and integration across the security infrastructure.

The reason the other options do not lead to creating a new fabric connector is because they either do not provide the necessary interface or are not directly related to creating connectors. Connecting to the management console is a preliminary step for accessing the device, but it does not specifically relate to the task at hand. Similarly, installing software updates may improve functionality but does not pertain to the creation of the connectors themselves. Reconfiguring existing connectors involves modifying the settings of already established connections, rather than creating new ones. Thus, accessing the fabric view is the direct and necessary step for creating a new fabric connector.
