Translating log file timestamps

This topic explains how to translate log file timestamps from Unix time to you local time on your Proventia Network IPS appliance.

Procedure
  1. Log on to your appliance as root.
  2. Run logtime with the required parameters. If you run logtime without the arguments, logtime will display usage information.
    Example: To translate timestamps in the firewall log file frw000.log, run the following command: logtime /var/iss/frw000.log /var/iss/newfrw000.log This command creates a new file called newfrw000.log based on the frw000.log file, but the timestamps in the new file are in local time. The original log file is not modified.
    Note: If you create the new translated log file in /var/iss directory, you can download it from Proventia® Manager.
