Because Syslog traffic is not encrypted, Syslog messages that are
sent through the Internet decrease the security of the trusted
network. Use a VPN tunnel to increase the security of Syslog
message traffic. If the Syslog messages travel through a VPN
tunnel, the data is encrypted with IPSec technology.
Setting the System Time
For each log record, the Firebox® X Edge records the time from its
system clock.
You set the time one of two ways. You synchronize your system
using Network TIme Protocol (NTP) or you can set the date and time
manually.
