Managing security logs
Security logs are very important for locating and troubleshooting network problems. Generally, security
logs are output together with other logs. It is difficult to identify security logs among all logs.
To solve this problem, you can save security logs into the security log file without affecting the current log
output rules.
Saving security logs into the security log file
After you enable the saving of the security logs into the security log file:
• The system first outputs security logs to the security log file buffer.
• The system saves the logs from the security log file buffer into the security log file at a specified
interval (the security log administrator can also manually save security logs into the log file).
• After the security logs are saved, the buffer is cleared immediately.
The device supports only one security log file. To avoid security log loss, you can set an alarm threshold
for the security log file usage. When the alarm threshold is reached, the system outputs a message to
inform the administrator. The administrator can log in to the device as the security log administrator and
back up the security log file to prevent the loss of important data.
