How file size limits work
See “How file size limits work” on page 301.
Example
This example shows how to set the maximum file size buffered to memory for
scanning at 25 MB, the maximum uncompressed file size that can be buffered to
memory at 100 MB, and how to enable antivirus scanning on ports 20 and 21 for FTP
traffic.
config antivirus service ftp
set memfilesizelimit 25
set uncompsizelimit 100
set port 20 21
end
This example shows how to display the antivirus FTP traffic settings.

variables
Description Default Availability
memfilesizelimit
<MB_integer>
Set the maximum file size that can be
buffered to memory for virus scanning.
The maximum file size allowed is 10% of the
FortiGate RAM size. For example, a
FortiGate unit with 256 MB of RAM could
have a threshold range of 1 MB to 25 MB.
Oversized files can be passed or blocked in a
firewall protection profile.
Note: For email scanning, the
memfilesizelimit refers to the final size of the
email after encoding by the email client,
including attachments. Email clients may use
a variety of encoding types and some
encoding types translate into larger file sizes
than the original attachment. The most
common encoding, base64, translates 3
bytes of binary data into 4 bytes of base64
data. So a file may be blocked or logged as
oversized even if the attachment is several
megabytes less than the memfilesizelimit.
10 (MB) All models.
port
<port_integer>
Configure antivirus scanning on a
nonstandard port number or multiple port
numbers for FTP. You can use ports from the
range 1-65535. You can add up to 20 ports.
21 All models.
uncompsizelimit
<MB_integer>
Set the maximum uncompressed file size that
can be buffered to memory for virus scanning.
Enter a value in megabytes between 1 and
the total memory size. Enter 0 for no limit (not
recommended).
