Good Day!

 

Some months ago, I switched my old FG30E because of the port problems (falling back to10mbit) to a new, used one, which was licensed to a Premium Support contract (mine was no Premium), that is the only difference, both have the exact same config.

 

Took a routine look yesterday into the System Events and I was quite puzzled: the FG30E constantly tries to update the signatures, although, no scheduled updates ticked or any license active anymore. Furthermore, it clogs my syslog. The intervals are between 1 minute to 30 minutes.

 

"Log Description: AV database updated by scanunit , User Interface n/a Scanunit initiated a virus engine/definitions update"

 

Any chance, I can turn this thing off? Or just ignore it and set System Events to no logging so I wont see it any more?

 

Regards,

Stephan

"disable the AV engine update attempts or configure the system to stop logging these events."

 

Second, I know how to, but 1st one, already tried to disable "scheduled updates", also in CLI, but no luck, still the same.

 

Between: is it a "problem", like CPU wise, or just some minor thing to ignore?
