Forwarding CheckPoint Logs to Syslog Server
This document captures the configuration of Syslog and logs of different blades that will be seen in SmartView Tracker and syslog with the following scenarios:
Scenario 1: R77.30 Mgmt and R77.30 GW, Syslog forwarded through Gateway (Limitation some logs will be hidden)
Scenario 2: R77.30 Mgmt and R77.30 GW, Syslog forwarded through Mgmt (Limitation all logs forwarded to /var/log/messages and then to syslog server)
Scenario 3: R80 Mgmt and R77.30 GW, Syslog forwarded through Mgmt (Limitation all logs forwarded to /var/log/messages and then to syslog server)
In this article, we have shown the logs of the below software blades:
1. Firewall
2. IPS
3. Anti-Virus
4. Anti-Bot
5. Application Control &
6. URL Filtering
Scenario 1: Forwarding the Traffic Logs from R77.30 Firewall to Syslog Server
In this scenario, am making the firewall to send the traffic logs to both Management Server and Syslog Server directly.
Note: Only Traffic logs can be seen on the Syslog server and there will be no /var/log/messages.
1. Install the R77.30 Add-on on Management Server via CPUSE.
2. Create the Syslog Server object in SmartDashboard.
3. Under “Send logs and alerts to these log servers”, add the Syslog server object along with the original management server object.
4. Enable the fwsyslog_enable parameter on the Firewall either on-the fly or permanent and install the Policy.
