Hi,
The NG compatibility is still under work. Since I do not have NG
I rely on others passing me the output of fw log on NG.
I received a few and I'll soon start working on it.
In a distributed environment, the ideal is to leave the server
run on the FW management station and the client somewhere else,
perhaps where a Web server runs so that the output can be shown
via web.
What you log really depends on what you want to analyze on your
statistics (and viceversa). I always log everything, at the end
it's only a few megabyte data a day which it can be easily
compressed and archived on tapes.
Not logging the last drop is not a good idea, IMHO as it makes
very difficult to track down FW problems and does not help in
finding out possible attacks.
Regards,
Gianluca
