Guidelines
The upload-method command
sets the protocol to upload a file-based log to a remote site. This
command is used in the following situations:
- The log type that is set by the type command
is
file. - The archive-mode that is set by the archive-mode command
is
upload.
The SCP upload method is deprecated. If you
use SCP to upload multiple log targets at the same time, a system
error might occur. The appliance supports only one SCP connection
at a time. To minimize the risk when you use SCP, configure log targets
with different settings, such as different event subscriptions and
different log sizes.
