Routing Log is Empty

[FCS001FCS]

I was going through the Logs and noticed that the "Routing" Log is empty. It states, "No logs to display". All the other Logs seem fine.

I checked the log files in "/var/log" and "routing.log" is zero Bits, so empty.

Do I need to turn something on to get entries in the "Routing" Log or do I have a problem that needs to be fixed?

Thanks.

the only thing i have under routing is radvd = router advertisement daemon for IPv6
and only because i have ipv6 and router advertisement enable.
so i'm sure it's pretty normal that is empty for the most cases

Thanks, yes, I found that already but honestly did not understand what was supposed to show up in the logs from that short explanation page.

Thanks for the education and confirmation.

All these are features that are not enabled by default on pfSense. Some are actually packages, which would have to be installed.
So I think, if you use it you would be aware of it.
