SOHO logging

The WatchGuard SOHO generates an ongoing activity log stored on the SOHO. This log stores a maximum of 150 messages. When it reaches its maximum, the oldest message is deleted.

The log messages may include time synchronizations between SOHO and the WatchGuard Key Server, discarded packets for a packet handling violation, duplicate messages, time-outs for attempting to open the WatchGuard Feature Key Server, or return error messages.

Setting a remote log host

Setting a remote log host causes log messages to be transmitted to a WatchGuard log server with an account set up for your configuration. It has the advantages of saving local resources for other less memory-intensive tasks and puts the log host at the WatchGuard site where customer support can examine logs at your request to troubleshoot security problems.
