System Logs

System Logs record system events and hardware environments. System Logs help you learn if the system has been functioning properly and perform troubleshooting when a fault occurs.

Context

System logs include all logs on system alarms, user login and logout, system operations, and blacklist.

For USG6000E, before querying system logs, you have run the log type syslog enable command on the FW to enable the recording of system logs.

Procedure

  1. Choose Monitor > Logs > System Log List to view system logs.
  2. Optional: Click to export system logs in CSV format to the management PC.
  3. Click Add Filter and enter Log Level or Log Type. Click to export logs. Only the logs filtered based on advanced search conditions are exported.

    If the device has no disk/SD card, click Advanced Search to filter logs.

  4. Optional: You can click to save the current log query conditions as a log query template for future use.

    The next time you want to use these query conditions, you only need to click to select the template name and click OK. Then the system queries logs based on the template conditions. The device administrator can click Template Distribution to view the number of templates created by each user. In addition, you can click to delete a log query template.

    Only the user that creates a log query template can view or use this template.

    Each log page supports a maximum of 10 log query templates, and a device supports a maximum of 1000 log query templates.
