Introduction (Description)

UserGate Log Analyzer (LogAn) is an add-on component for the UserGate firewall. Administrators can use it to:

  • Reduce the gateway load by offloading log processing, reporting, and other statistical data processing to an external LogAn server, thus providing more resources for the gateway to perform protection and filtering tasks.

  • Join logs from multiple UserGate firewalls for analysis.

  • Increase the logging depth by increasing the storage size on the LogAn servers.

  • Collect information from third-party devices via SNMP and analyze it.

LogAn is available as a hardware and software system (HSC, appliance) or as a virtual machine image (virtual appliance) designed to be deployed in a virtual environment.
