Circuit testing within the XG18

Hello Anthonty,

Thank you for contacting the Sophos Community!

The dgd.log should show the Ping to 8.8.8.8 if you set that IP as Failvoer rule.

For the IPsec or in general, you could leave a rotating pcap for this to capture the pings to a specific IP via a Speciif interface

# nohup tcpdump -veni Port1 host 8.8.8.8 and proto ICMP  -s0 -C 10 -W 2 -w /var/ping.pcap -b &

C = Numer of Files

W = MB size of the File

Hi, Thank you for your quick response. 2 questions

1. How do I view dgd.log? I tried to follow a log guide and went to cd /log but after that it didnt say how to view the log. 

2. Is that pcap file consuming memory? how do I download them? 

Thanks!

Hello Anthony,

Thank you for the follow-up!

The dgd.log is under /log/ you can see it by running

less dgd.log and then use the Page Up or Page down to move op/down in the log, if you want to go to the bottom you can press Shift + G 

The Pcap will consume Hard Drive space and a very small amount of memory, you can follow this KB to know how to export the capture or the log itself.
