What fields should appear in the SSL access log files?
SSL Manager creates 2 types of log files.
*
Activity logs (inbound.log/outbound.log): These logs record SSL Manager activity and include messages at a level specified in the user interface.
*
Access logs (inbound_access.log/outbound_access.log): These logs record connections with clients and servers.
You can log activity for both inbound (client to SSL Manager) and outbound (SSL Manager to server) traffic. You have the option of logging data to the system log (syslog) or to a file.
Use the Configure > SSL > Logging > General page to specify the name and location of log files.
1.
For inbound traffic, select the type of log files you want to keep. For activity logs, you are specifying the level of detail in the log.
2.
Enter a number from 1 to 7 to indicate the level of detail you want logged. Note that each level provides more information; level 7 is the most verbose. The levels of logging and granularity are:
1 (alert)
Log conditions that should be corrected immediately, such as a corrupted system file
2 (critical)
Log conditions such as device failures
3 (normal)
Log errors
4 (warning)
Log warnings
5 (notice)
Log conditions that are not error conditions, but may still require attention
6 (information)
Log informational messages
7 (debugging)
Log debugging information. Level 7 includes the most log output.
3.
Indicate if log data should go to the syslog or to a file.
4.
Repeat Step 2 and Step 3 for the access log file.
5.
For outbound traffic, repeat Step 2 through Step 4.
6.
Click Apply.
