System Log Messages Overview

 

A system log message records the following key information:

  • List of incoming and outgoing IP flows, including services.

  • Security attributes associated with a flow, for example, the policies that apply to traffic belonging to that flow.

  • Sessions, the session timeout value, the active session time, the duration of the active session, the active traffic on the session, and detailed information specific to sessions.

  • Software process that generated the message and a brief description of the operation or error that occurred.

You can configure the Network and Security Manager (NSM) to send specific system log messages to an external system log server.
