It seems from your question you need to monitor a Dual WAN load-balance configuration or failover config.

access your firewall then

Go to Log & Report > Traffic Log > Forward Traffic
 to see network traffic from different source IP addresses flowing through
both wan1 and/or  wan2 as shown in figure 1

To be sure  100% of your setup, try to disconnect the wan1 port on the FortiGate unit to see that all traffic automatically goes
through the wan2 port unit, until wan1 is available again as shown in figure 2.
