Configuration

Config logs are common to any product, application, or service that writes to Strata Logging Service. These are used to record changes made to the writing entity. Usually config logs are written infrequently and it is possible that they will age-out of Strata Logging Service, depending on quota levels, so that none are available if you query for them.
For example, Strata Logging Service quotas are defined by collections, or buckets, that encompass many types of logs. Next-generation firewall config logs are placed in the Infrastructure and Audit quota bucket. They share this bucket with system logs, which the firewall writes considerably more frequently than config logs.
As a specific quota fills up in Strata Logging Service, older logs are automatically removed to make space for new logs (that is, they age-out). Consequently, as system logs are written and the Infrastructure and Audit quota is met, older logs (including config logs) are automatically removed. If the firewall's configuration is stable so that it is not changing very often, you might not find any config logs in Strata Logging Service, even if the firewall is forwarding them to the data lake.
