Which of the following is not a Fireware monitoring tool?

  1. FireBox System Manager - Blocked Sites list

  2. Log Server

  3. FireWatch

  4. Traffic Monitor

The correct answer is: Log Server

The Fireware monitoring tools are designed to provide visibility and manage the performance and security of network traffic. FireBox System Manager, Traffic Monitor, and FireWatch are all integrated or dedicated tools that enable users to monitor blocked sites, view live traffic flows, and analyze security events to ensure network integrity. Log Server, however, serves a different function. It is primarily focused on storing and managing log data generated by Fireware devices. While it plays a crucial role in the overall security posture by allowing for the analysis of historical data and compliance reporting, it is not classified strictly as a real-time monitoring tool in the same way that the other options function. Therefore, the choice of Log Server as not being a Fireware monitoring tool is justified based on its role in log management rather than active traffic monitoring.
