STEP 5 | Click the Log Card Forwarding tab.
STEP 6 |
Enter the IPv4 and/or IPv6 IP Address, Netmask, and Default Gateway.
STEP 7 | Click OK and then click Commit. After the commit completes, connect the port to your
network equipment.
STEP 8 | Verify that the log port is sending and receiving traffic by viewing logical interface counters.
To view counters, run the following command:
admin@PA-7050> debug
log-card-interface info slot s8
If counters are incrementing, but traffic is not reaching to the remote server, you can ping the
server from the log port by running the following command:
admin@PA-7050> debug
log-card-interface ping slot s8 host <host-ip-address>
The firewall will now use this port to forward dataplane logs, email, and WildFire file
forwarding.
For complete details on configuring log forwarding, refer to the
Guide.
