[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index] RE: [FW1] Logs building up on firewall module...
You should be able to force switches from the management station, and hopefully get the firewall to send the accumulated logs back to the management station. Try running fw logswitch -h <name of firewall> - which should get the firewall to: 1: switch log files 2: transfer the switched logs from that firewall to the management station, and 3: remove the switched log from the firewall [ use + instead of - to keep a copy of the logs on the firewall] You will continue to get log entries being recorded on the remote firewalls unless they have a consistent good connection to the management station. If there are problems, you will see a lot of messages in the firewall error log (fwd.elg, or fwd.log, depending on the version) like fwd: Log Server .yyy.zzz.www went down and a lot of messages in the management station error log like fwd: Remote FireWall aaaa is connected fwd: End connection from aaaa where .yyy.zzz.www is the name or IP address of the management station and aaaa is the name of the firewall object Hope this helps -- Timothy Frost mailto:[email protected] EDS New Zealand Fax: +64-4-495-0473 8 Gilmer Terrace Phone: +64-4-495-0504 P O Box 3647 Wellington New Zealand > -----Original Message----- > From: Scott Kellerman [SMTP:[email protected]] > Sent: Wednesday, December 20, 2000 9:37 AM > To: [email protected] > Subject: [FW1] Logs building up on firewall module... > > > I have several firewall modules in different countries that are managed in > > the USA.
