Firepower 1140 FDM can save the connection log into its hard disk?

Hello.

I installed Firepower 1140 to my customer's site.

Yesterday, my customer wanted to anlalyze the connection log because some of their PC can't connect the internet.

But FDM is seemed has only real-time monitoring.

Can FDM save the connection log into its hard disk and search the logs later?

@GaeMi FDM has limited capacity to store logs, the general recommendation is to log to a remote syslog server.

Thanks, Rob.

I understand it. If my customer doesn't solve this problem, I will suggest installing syslog server.

I have a question, how much the real-time log capacity of FDM?
