3. Configure a log forwarding profile to enable WildFire logs to be forwarded to Panorama, an email account, SNMP, a syslog server, and as HTTP requests.
   In this example you will set up email logs for when a sample is determined to be malicious. You can also enable Benign and Grayware logs to be forwarded, which will produce more activity if you are testing.

   The firewall does not forward WildFire logs for blocked files to an email account.
   1. Select ObjectsLog Forwarding.
   2. Add and name the profile, for example, WildFire-Log-Forwarding. Optionally, you can add a Description of the log forwarding profile.

      2. Select the WildFire Log Type.

      4. Under the Forward Method options, choose the Email profile that was created in step 1 (in this case, WildFire-Email-Profile), and click OK to save the match list updates.
   4. Click OK again to save the Log Forwarding Profile updates.

4. Add the log forwarding profile to a security policy being used for WildFire forwarding (with a WildFire Analysis profile attached).
   The WildFire Analysis profile defines the traffic that the firewall forwards for Advanced WildFire analysis. To set up a WildFire analysis profile and attach it to a security policy rule, see Forward Files for Advanced WildFire Analysis.

   2. In the Actions tab Log Setting section, select the Log Forwarding profile you configured.
