ProSecure Unified Threat Management (UTM) Appliance Reference Manual Configuring Logging, Alerts, and Event Notifications By default, the UTM logs security-related events such as accepted and dropped packets on different segments of your LAN, denied incoming and outgoing service requests, hacker probes and login attempts, content filtering events such as attempts to access blocked sites and URLs, unwanted e-mail content, spam attempts, and many other types of events. You can configure the UTM to e-mail logs and alerts to a specified e-mail address. To receive the logs in an e-mail message, the UTM's e-mail notification server must be configured and e-mail notification must be enabled. If the e-mail notification server is not configured or e-mail notification is disabled, you can still query the logs and generate log reports that you then can view on the Web Management Interface screen or save in CSV format. For more information about logs, see "Querying Logs and Generating Reports" on page 11-32. Configuring the E-mail Notification Server The UTM can automatically send information such as notifications and reports to the administrator. You must configure the necessary information for sending e mail, such as the administrator's e-mail address, the e-mail server, user name, and password. To configure the e-mail notification server: 1. Select Network Config > Email Notification from the menu. The Email Notification screen displays (Figure 11-3 shows some examples).
