Log to a WatchGuard Log Server

The WatchGuard® Log Server (previously known as the WatchGuard
System Event Processor, or WSEP) is a component of the Watch-
Guard System Manager. If you have a Firebox® III, Firebox X Core, or
Firebox X Peak, configure a primary Log Server to collect the log
messages from your Firebox X Edge. You can also configure a
backup Log Server. If the Firebox X Edge cannot connect to the pri-
mary Log Server, it tries to connect to the backup Log Server. It
sends log messages to the backup Log Server until the primary Log
Server becomes available. When the Firebox X Edge can resume its
connection to the primary Log Server, it automatically starts to send
log messages to the primary Log Server again. For instructions on
how to configure the Log Server to accept the log messages, see the
126 WatchGuard Firebox X Edge
