Description
This article describes how to get rid of the system administrator reference to a physical interface.

Solution
The system administrator reference to a physical interface of Fortigate is visible because an 'Interface Bandwidth widget' using that specific 'FORTIGATE ADMIN ACCOUNT' has been configured.

Example.

Go to Dashboard -> Main and select 'Add widget'.




Select under 'Monitor' the Interface Bandwidth Widget.





Select the interface to monitor the bandwidth usage. (For this sample 'LAN' will be used).





Then 'select' 'Add Widget'.




Then go to Network Interface and select the reference on LAN.





From here, the system admin 'admin account' will be visible because user is logged as admin when the 'LAN INTERFACE BANDWIDTH WIDGET' is added. 




Now to get rid of that, go to Dashboard -> MAIN and  remove the interface bandwidth for LAN.




Once the reference list of LAN interface is checked again, the system administrator 'admin account' on the reference list will not be visible anymore.
