Log Settings

The Log Settings screen allows you to perform the following tasks:

• Specify the host name encoding language.

Threat Mitigator’s encoding language is UTF-8. An endpoint’s host name may not display properly in Threat Event Logs if the host name information retrieved from the endpoint is encoded in another language. To display the information properly, Threat Mitigator must first determine the original encoding language and then convert the host name from that language to UTF-8.

Threat Mitigator can convert the host name from any of the encoding languages provided in the Host Name Encoding section.

• Specify syslog servers to which Threat Mitigator sends threat event logs and system logs.

To configure log settings:

• Logs > Log Settings

1. Select the encoding language from the list.

2. Select the check box to send logs to the primary syslog server.

3. Type the IP address and port number of the primary syslog server.

4. (Optional) Select the check box to send logs to the secondary syslog server to manage logs on a backup or duplicate syslog application.

5. Type the IP address and port number of the secondary syslog server.

6. Click Save.
