FTD troubelshoot and logs

sam cook — Fri, 21 Feb 2020 15:32:49 GMT

Hi,

I'm using FTD 2110 via FMC 6.2.2.2

Is there a way to see real time logs via CLI or FMC for troubelshooting ?

I know there is packet capture and packet tracer but I need to see what alerts/warnings , my FTD is generating.

regards,

Hi Sam,

For alerts and warnings there is a health module on FMC which would give alert as and when detected on GUI.

If you really want to see the CLI side, it has to be specific to what you are looking for.

All of general logs can be found under /var/log/messages.

cd /var/log

tail -f messages

This would dump almost everything including internal system level messages most which can be ignored.

Hope that helps,

Yogesh
