Firewall Remote Log Page

This page allows you to send firewall attack reports out to a standard SysLog server so
many instances can be logged over a long period of time. You can select individual attack
or configuration items to send to the SysLog server so that only the items of interest will
be monitored. You can log permitted connections, blocked connections, known Internet
attack types, and CMRG configuration events. The SysLog server must be on the same
network as the Private LAN behind the Configuration Manager (typically 192.168.0.x). To
activate the SysLog monitoring feature, check all desired event types to monitor and
enter the last byte of the IP address of the SysLog server. Normally, the IP address of
this SysLog server would be hard-coded so that the address does not change and always
agrees with the entry on this page.
