83
Sending the Log
Use the Sending the Log feature to inform your administrator of the
performance of the Firewall and to make sure that the log file always has
space for new entries.
Mail Server
To enable sending log or alert messages via e-mail, you must specify the
numerical IP address or the name of your SMTP server. You can obtain this
information from the Internet Service Provider that you use to connect
