What is the Security Gateway directory where an administrator can find vpn debug log files generated during Site-to-Site VPN troubleshooting?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: C

The correct directory where an administrator can find vpn debug log files generated during Site-to-Site VPN troubleshooting is $FWDIR/log/. This directory contains the following files related to vpn debug:

vpnd.elg: This file contains the high-level VPN debug information, such as the VPN tunnel establishment, deletion, and negotiation messages. It can be enabled by using the vpn debug on command on the Security Gateway CLI.

legacy_ike.elg: This file contains the low-level IKE debug information for IKEv1, such as the IKE packets, encryption, decryption, and authentication. It can be enabled by using the vpn debug ikeon command on the Security Gateway CLI.

legacy_ikev2.xml: This file contains the low-level IKE debug information for IKEv2, such as the IKE packets, encryption, decryption, and authentication. It can be enabled by using the vpn debug ikev2on command on the Security Gateway CLI.

These files can be viewed by using the vpn debug view command on the Security Gateway CLI, or by using the IKEView tool on the Security Management Server GUI.

I'm going with B. SCPDIR/conf/ just sounds like the kind of place an admin would hide those pesky VPN logs.

Let's see if we can find the answer. Maybe it's A. SFWDIR/conf/ could also be a possible location for the VPN logs.

I agree with you, B does sound like a good option. SCPDIR/conf/ seems like a directory where VPN logs could be stored.

Maybe the real answer is hidden in a maze of symbolic links and hidden directories. Gotta keep those IT folks on their toes!

I think it's D. The log files are usually located in the VPN directory, not the configuration directory.
