used to generate custom reports. The firewall can also forward Syslog
information to a Syslog server on a private network.
The ASUS SL1200's rewall supports:
Alerts sent to the administrator via e-mail.
At a minimum, maintains log details such as, time of packet arrival,
description of action taken by Firewall and reason for action.
Supports the UNIX Syslog format.
Sends log report e-mails as scheduled by the network administrator or
by default when the log le is full.
All the messages are sent in the WELF format.
ICMP logging to show code and type.
2.4.2 VPN
The wide-use of a very open public network such as the Internet comes
with a lot of advantages as well as risks. These risks include the lack of
condentiality of data being sent and the authenticity of the identities of the
parties involved in the exchange of data. The VPN supported in the ASUS
SL1200 is intended to resolve these issues.
The VPN supported by the router is IPSec compliant. Packets sent via
VPN are encrypted to maintain privacy. The encrypted packets are then
tunneled through a public network. As a result, tunnel participants enjoy
the same security features and facilities that are available only to members
of private network.
Table 2.4 lists the VPN features supported by the router.
