Firewalls (July 1997) |
Check to see if on your log viewer, if you are trying to resolve IP addresses with DNS. If so, for each entry in the log, the machine queries DNS to try and get a name associated with the IP address entry. This is for both the source and destination addresses, meaning 2 queries are executed for each log entry. Disable that option (should be on the main log viewer screen), and your problem should disappear. Hope this helps.
