There are two types of logging for the Firebox SSL VPN Gateway. All of the logs are stored locally and can
be viewed from either the Administration Tool or the Administration Portal. Optionally, this same infor-
mation can be sent to a syslog server.
System message logs contain information that can help Firebox SSL VPN Gateway support personnel
assist with troubleshooting. By reviewing the information provided, you can track unusual changes that
can affect the stability and performance of the Firebox SSL VPN Gateway.
System message logs are archived on the Firebox SSL VPN Gateway for 30 days. The oldest log is then
replaced with the current log.
You can download one or all logs at any time. You can also have system messages forwarded to your sys-
log server, as described in “Forwarding System Messages to a Syslog Server” on page 138.
