•
Dropped Packets—Check this box to log packets that were blocked from
being transferred through the segment. This option is useful when the
Default Outbound Policy is "Allow" (see
Policy, page
79). For example, if Dropped Packets is checked for LAN to
WAN and there is a firewall rule to block ssh traffic from LAN, then whenever
a LAN machine tries to make an ssh connection, those packets will be
dropped and a message will be logged. (Make sure the log option is set to
allow for this firewall rule.)
Under the type of system logs, select the type of system events to be logged. The
following system events can be recorded:
•
All Unicast Traffic—Check this box to log all unicast packets directed to the
router.
•
All Broadcast/Multicast Traffic—Check this box to log all broadcast or
multicast packets directed to the router.
Under "other events logs," select the type of event to be logged. The following
events can be recorded:
•
Source MAC Filter—Check this box to log packets matched due to source
MAC filtering. Uncheck this box to disable source MAC filtering logs.
•
Bandwidth Limit—Check this box to log packets dropped due to Bandwidth
Limiting.
