Event Log Web Page (Fig. 32)
The gateway builds a log of firewall blocking actions that the Firewall has taken. Using this page
lets you specify an email address to which you want the gateway to email this log. You must also
tell the gateway your outgoing (i.e. SMTP) email server’s name, so it can direct the email to it.
Enable Email Alerts has the gateway forward email notices when Firewall protection events occur.
Click E-mail Log to immediately send the email log. Click Clear Log to clear the table of entries for
a fresh start.
The log of these events is also visible on the screen. For each blocking event type that has taken
place since the table was last cleared, the table shows Description, Count, Last Occurrence, Target,
and Source.
