Scheduled Log Export : Path

HartkentlyNua — Mon, 22 Jul 2013 09:10:42 GMT

Hello Guys,

Just a quick question, I tried to dig in the forums but i can't find the right answer. the guide isn't helping too.

I would just like to know the configuration in adding the Path in the Schedule Log Export.

What I understand in the Path is I will just have to add the path on where the file will be saved. (am i right?)

so for example the path would look like "c:\ftp files\pan data\traffic logs\"

however the configuration wasn't allowing me to use special characters. so how am I going to do this?

Here is the sample screen shot.

Thank you in advance.

Regards,

Hartkently

Scheduled log export option is for export logs from PAN Device to your SCP/FTP server (not your workstation).

Path option is to provide information of subdirectores where such log should be writen.

Put there informations about your server name/login/password and press test scp connection and You will see where it tryes write test file.

For specifying the path, follow the unix/linux convention ie use forward slashes for your path e.g. /home/user

Just typing in a forward slash '/' means write to the root directory.

Also ensure that the username that you are using has permission/privilege to write to the directory where you intend to copy the logs to.
