Firewall > LOGS — config Page

If you enable the firewall by specifying a policy other than None (see

Setting the Firewall Policy

”), you can use

this page to enable session, blocking, or intrusion logging.

If you enable the firewall, the blacklist log is always generated. Any IP address the firewall determines to have
breached the active policy is added to the blacklist log. To view the blacklist log, click blacklist. The firewall blocks
all traffic to and from a blacklisted IP address for 24 hours or until you reboot the SBG1000 or manually clear the
blacklist by clicking Clear on the Firewall > LOGS — blacklist page.
