LOG
Log records all connections that pass through the SG-1000’s control policies. The
information is classified as Traffic Log, Event Log, and Connection Log.
Traffic Log’s parameters are setup when setting up policies. Traffic logs record the
details of packets such as the start and stop time of connection, the duration of
connection, the source address, the destination address and services requested, for each
control policy.
Event Log record the contents of System Configurations changes made by the
Administrator such as the time of change, settings that change, the IP address used to
log in…etc.
Connection Log records all of the connections of SG-1000. When the connection
occurs some problem, the Administrator can trace back the problem from the
information.
How to use the Log
The Administrator can use the log data to monitor and manage the device and the
networks. The Administrator can view the logged data to evaluate and troubleshoot the
network, such as pinpointing the source of traffic congestions.
