19.2 Configuring Log Settings
To change your ZyWALL’s log settings, click
LOGS
, then the
Log Settings
tab. The screen appears as
shown.
Use the
Log
Settings
screen to configure to where the ZyWALL is to send logs; the schedule for when the
ZyWALL is to send the logs and which logs and/or immediate alerts the ZyWALL is to send.
An alert is a type of log that warrants more serious attention. They include system errors, attacks (access
control) and attempted access to blocked web sites or web sites with restricted web features such as cookies,
active X and so on. Some categories such as
System Errors
consist of both logs and alerts. You may
differentiate them by their color in the
View Log
screen. Alerts display in red and logs display in black.
Alerts are e-mailed as soon as they happen. Logs may be e-mailed as soon as the
log is full (see
Log Schedule
). Selecting many alert and/or log categories
(especially
Access Control
) may result in many e-mails being sent.
