Logging Options
The IP690 supports two options for storing local system log files, as described in the following
topics:
„
Using Hard-Disk Drives for Logging
„
Using PC Card for Logging
Note
You can use only one device for logging (whether hard-disk drive or PC card) so only one
should be plugged into the system at any one time.
Using Hard-Disk Drives for Logging
The IP690 security platform is either a flash-based or disk-based appliance, and the appliance
also supports one or two optional hard-disk drives that plug into connectors on the motherboard.
Each hard-disk drive provides 40 GB of disk storage.
A hard-disk drive is not included with a standard flash-based IP690, nor is a second hard-disk
drive included with a standard disk-based IP690. When you purchase your IP690, you can order
one or two hard-disk drives for factory installation or order them later and install them yourself,
as described in
“Installing a Hard-Disk Drive” on page 82.
You can use a single hard-disk drive for storing log files.
Using PC Card for Logging
The IP690 slot 3 populated with an optional PCMCIA card carrier can support an optional PC
card with 1 GB flash memory. The slot, labeled Slot 3, is located on the front panel of the
appliance, as
Figure 4 shows. The IP690 supports using only one PC card at a time.
