[Jafar_Hussain]

Hello All,

I have tried to export logs from firewall its reach limit up to 1048576 rows, this is only for 3hr logs can anyone have the option to filter logs or can we exceed this limit.?

Hi @Jafar_Hussain ,

Each log has a filter area that allows you to set a criteria for which log entries to display :

 1048576 is the maximum number of lines.

I have checked but, I want to export all the logs without filter it is showing millions of flogs for 3-4 hr is there any way to exceed the limits of CSV rows.

 I have already exceed limit up to 1048576.

You should use ftp or scp

I would recommend doing FTP.

Export logs to a SCP or FTP server

Run the following commands to export log files:

• SCP

  > scp export log traffic start-time equal 2011/12/21@12:00:00 end-time equal 2011/12/26@12:00:00 to <value> Destination (username:password@host) or (username@host)

• FTP

  > ftp export log traffic start-time equal 2011/12/21@12:00:00 end-time equal 2011/12/26@12:00:00 to <value> Destination (username:password@host) or (username@host)

note: 'start-time' and 'end-time' are mandatory values when exporting from the CL

Thanks for the information, is there any limitation to upgrade logs by this process.

Hi @Jafar_Hussain ,

Using ftp or scp to export your logs will have the same limitation.

I would consider using an external syslog server.
