Understanding PIX logs

[admin_2]

I am not sure if this is were I need to put this conversation....

I have been running a PIX for about a year now and have just started seeing lines in the log that I am not sure what it is saying. It looks like a IP address on the internet is connecting UDP to a server inside the firewall. Am I reading this right?

Here is a copy of the line:

2004-03-23 07:56:20 Local4.Info xxx.xxx.xxx.x %PIX-6-302015: Built outbound UDP connection 7050692 for outside:219.137.188.74 (Unresolved) /137 (219.137.188.74 (Unresolved) /137) to inside:xxx.xxx.xxx.xx (ps-syslog) /137 (xxx.xxx.xxx.xx (ps-syslog) /137)

I am not sure if this is a problem of not. I think I am confused on the word "outbound" here. Could anyone rest my worries on this?

Thanks

John

"Outbound" refers to traffic flowing from any higher-security interface (inside) to any lower security interface (outside).

The above message means your inside host initiated a connection to 219.137.188.74 on port 137, using a source port of 137.

For an explanation of all syslog messages, use this link (note the above message is number 302015, so search accordingly):
