NETGEAR ProSafe SSL VPN Concentrator 25 SSL312 Reference Manual
3-6 Status and Logging
v1.0, August 2006
Log Settings
The SSL VPN Concentrator supports web-based logging, syslog logging and e-mail alert
messages. In addition, the SSL VPN Concentrator may be configured to e-mail the event log file to
the SSL VPN Concentrator administrator before the log file is cleared.
Syslog is an industry-standard logging protocol that records system and networking activity. The
SSL VPN Concentrator syslog messages are sent in WELF (WebTrends Enhanced Log Format),
so most standard firewall and networking reporting products can accept and interpret the SSL VPN
Concentrator log files. The SSL VPN Concentrator syslog service transmits syslog messages to
external syslog server(s) listening on UDP port 514.
To configure Syslog Settings, E-mail Settings and Log and Alert Categories for syslog and alert
settings:
1. Click Log Settings under the System Configuration menu in the left navigation pane.
