48.4 Log Setting Screens

The Log Setting screens control log messages and alerts. A log message stores
the information for viewing (for example, in the View Log tab) or regular e-
mailing later, and an alert is e-mailed immediately. Usually, alerts are used for
events that require more serious attention, such as system errors and attacks.
The ZyWALL provides a system log and supports e-mail profiles and remote syslog
servers. The system log is available on the View Log tab, the e-mail profiles are
used to mail log messages to the specified destinations, and the other four logs
are stored on specified syslog servers.
The Log Setting tab also controls what information is saved in each log. For the
system log, you can also specify which log messages are e-mailed, where they are
e-mailed, and how often they are e-mailed.
For alerts, the Log Settings tab controls which events generate alerts and where
alerts are e-mailed.
The Log Settings Summary screen provides a summary of all the settings. You
can use the Log Settings Edit screen to maintain the detailed settings (such as
log categories, e-mail addresses, server names, etc.) for any log. Alternatively, if
you want to edit what events is included in each log, you can also use the Active
Log Summary screen to edit this information for all logs at the same time.
