There is a way to install the Reporting Module on a machine apart from the
enforcement point. The only gotcha is that the Log Consolidator has to be on
the same machine as the Management Console (where the logs are gathered).
We're running a large VPN (ultimately over 30 gateways, mixed between mainly
CP2000 and CISCO IPSec). In order to take the strain off the major gateway,
I removed the Management Server and Report Modules and put them on a
separate machine. All the GUI clients are on other machines (desktops)
again, for a true n-tier distributed system.
If you are thinking about moving the Reporting module, then go one step
higher in processor, grab a little extra memory, and some xtra HDD space
than you would have originally planned, and install the reporting module /
management console on the same machine.
The beauty of this layout is that the management console and all the
important bits sit in the protected network, and adding additional gateways
is a simple task with minimal impact.

Subject: [FW1] Reporting Module
I installed 4.1 on NT machine. Everything was working fine, External,
Internal and DMZ routing. I installed the Reporting Module, restarted the
firewall and it nothing seemed to be working as it was prior to the
reporting module. I had to rebuild the firewall from that point. I later
found that when I loaded Backup Exec, I experienced the same problem.
Is there a way to install reporting module on another computer? I know that
the client can be installed on another.
Thanks for any help
