Watchguard Network Security Practice Test

How many WatchGuard Log Servers can you configure your Firebox to send log messages to at the same time?

1. One

2. Two

3. As many as you have configured on your network

4. None

The correct answer is: As many as you have configured on your network

The ability to configure multiple WatchGuard Log Servers for your Firebox to send log messages to reflects the flexibility and scalability in managing network security. By design, the Firebox can be set up to send logs to more than one log server simultaneously, allowing for better redundancy, load balancing, and the capacity to handle larger amounts of log data effectively. Having multiple log servers means that if one server experiences downtime or becomes unreachable, the Firebox can continue to send logs to other designated servers, ensuring that no log information is lost and enhancing the resilience of your log management system. This configuration is particularly beneficial in larger network environments where log retention and analysis are critical for compliance and security monitoring. Therefore, the option that states you can configure as many Log Servers as you have on your network captures this flexibility and aligns with the capabilities of WatchGuard's systems.
