Viewing the Event Log
The logs detail the date and the time the event occurred, and its type. If the event is a communication
attempt that was rejected by the firewall, the event details include the source and destination IP address, the
destination port, and the protocol used for the communication attempt (for example, TCP or UDP). If the
event is a connection made or attempted over a VPN tunnel, the event is marked by a lock icon in the VPN
column.
This information is useful for troubleshooting. You can export the logs to an *.xls (Microsoft Excel) file,
and then store it for analysis purposes or send it to technical support.
Note: You can configure the IP60 appliance to send event logs to a Syslog server.
For information, see Configuring Syslog Logging on page 424.
