I'm required to log everything, and I find a useful tool to deal with 
this is socklog.

For example:

  s1000000 -* +*pix.ip.ad.dr:* ./main/pix \
  s1000000 -* +*%PIX*Built* +*%PIX*Teardown* ./main/pix-accept \
  s1000000 -* +*%PIX*Deny* ./main/pix-deny

This will put log messages with the specified characteristics into their
own log directory. It's easy to do the same thing to sort out protocol,
port, etc. Not a full log analysis solution, but a good way to start
with bite-sized pieces when looking for specific info.
