Caution

Generating troubleshooting files in a Firewall Threat Defense device is a CPU-intensive task. Because of limited CPU resources in the Firewall Threat Defense 200 Series device, you may observe higher CPU usage and associated health alerts during this process. To prevent any potential traffic disruption, it's recommended to generate troubleshooting files only when the device is not actively handling network traffic.
