Store Remote Firewall Logs
You can store firewall attack reports or logs on a computer in your home, so that multiple instances can
be logged over a 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.
Note: The SysLog server must be on the same network as the Private LAN behind the Configuration Manager
(typically 192.168.0.x).
To store remote Firewall logs:
1. Click the Firewall-Remote Log menu link or click the Firewall menu button on the SBG6400 Main
Menu and then select Remote Log.
