Device > Scheduled Log Export
You can schedule exports of logs
and save them in CSV format to a
File Transfer Protocol (FTP) server or use Secure Copy (SCP) to
securely transfer data between the firewall and a remote host. Log
profiles contain the schedule and FTP server information. For example,
a profile may specify that the previous day’s logs are collected
each day at 3AM and stored on a particular FTP server.
