Logging, Alert, and Event Notification
You can configure the VPN firewall to log routing events such as dropped and accepted
packets; to log system events such as a change of time by an NTP server, secure login
attempts, and reboots; and to log other events. You can also schedule logs to be sent to the
administrator and enable logs to be sent to a syslog server on the network.
Note: Enabling routing and other event logs might generate a significant
volume of log messages. NETGEAR recommends that you enable
firewall logs for debugging purposes only.
