If you clicked Settings in the preceding Security Log screen, the following Firewall Log Settings screen will
appear. This screen allows you to configure firewall remote logging. Remote logging allows the firewall logs to be
sent to a machine running a syslog server.
NOTE: The syslog server must be configured to isten on udp port 514, which is usually the default port. In order for
the logs to be saved to the syslog server, the server should be configured to save the logs to a file. Some of the free
syslog servers available on the Internet are kiwisyslog, MT_syslog and 3Csyslog.
To configure Remote Logging, do the following:
1. Select the desired firewall log settings from the drop-down menus.
2. Click the Enable check box below Remote Logging (a check mark will appear in the box).
3. Type the IP address of the syslog server in the Remote IP Address field.
4. Click Apply to allow the settings to take effect.
