Manual purge

You can manually purge report logs to optimize your disk space usage. Manual purges are executed immediately.

Tip

Check your compliance requirements before purging.

  • Report module: Reports to be purged.

  • Criteria: Custom duration or purge all.

Warning

Manual purging of reports is a slow process because the firewall purges reports at five tables per minute. This slow rate ensures optimum usage of the firewall's system resources.
