Think you need to take a packet capture each time to see what’s traversing your firewall? Think again! Meraki’s Firewall Log tool for the MX security appliance provides real-time visibility into network traffic, helping a dashboard operator easily identify and troubleshoot common network flow issues.

By capturing detailed logs of allowed and blocked connections, the tool gives insight into what’s happening with the firewall as that traffic happens. Much quicker than running a standard packet capture, this tool enables an operator to get in, out, and back to it quicker than ever before!
