Enabling logging

Because logging all sessions uses more system resources, it is typically recommended to log only security events. However, for the purpose of this recipe, all sessions will be logged to ensure that logging has been configured correctly.

  1. To edit the Internet policy, go to Policy & Objects > IPv4 Policy.

  2. Under Logging Options, enable Log Allowed Traffic and select All Sessions.
