Log Server

Instances of Log Server, one for web security deployments and one for email security deployments, receive information about Internet and email activity and process the information into their respective Log Database.

Because record processing is resource-intensive, Log Server is installed on its own Windows Server and should not run on the same machine as other resource-sensitive components, such as Filtering Service, the Forcepoint management server, or the SQL Server host.

Log Server cannot be installed on an appliance.
