38.3 Log Setting Screens
The Log Setting screens control log messages and alerts. A log message stores the information for
viewing or regular e-mailing later, and an alert is e-mailed immediately. Usually, alerts are used for
events that require more serious attention, such as system errors and attacks.
The ZyWALL provides a system log and supports e-mail profiles and remote syslog servers. View
the system log in the MONITOR > Log screen. Use the e-mail profiles to mail log messages to the
specific destinations. You can also have the ZyWALL store system logs on a connected USB storage
device. The other four logs are stored on specified syslog servers.
The Log Setting screens control what information the ZyWALL saves in each log. You can also
specify which log messages to e-mail for the system log, and where and how often to e-mail them.
These screens also set for which events to generate alerts and where to email the alerts.
The first Log Setting screen provides a settings summary. Use the Edit screens to configure
settings such as log categories, e-mail addresses, and server names for any log. Use the Log
Category Settings screen to edit what information is included in the system log, USB storage, e-
mail profiles, and remote servers.
