config : log memory
 
log memory
Use this command to enable and configure event logging to memory (RAM). Only event logs can be stored in local memory.
 
Do not store important log messages to memory only. Memory is not permanent storage. Log messages stored in memory will be lost upon reboot or shutdown.
 
Event message logging must be enabled before event messages are recorded to memory. See config log event-log for details.
 
For improved performance, when not necessary, avoid logging highly frequent log types. Logs stored in memory consume RAM that could otherwise be used for scanning and other features, affecting FortiWeb’s throughput speed.
To use this command, your administrator account’s access control profile must have either w or rw permission to the loggrp area. For more information, see “Permissions”.
