Viewing Host Statistics

To display the Host Statistics window and view host statistics:

1. In NetWare Administrator, click the Server object representing the Novell BorderManager 3.7 server.

2. Select Novell BorderManager 3.7 from the Tools menu.

3. Click Proxy Cache > select View Audit Log from the Object menu.

   The HTTP Proxy Host Statistic window displays, with two list boxes: the Number of Hosts list box and the User Accessed list box.

   NOTE:  You can click the column heading of either list box to sort the entries in that column in ascending or descending order. The sorting order is reversed each time you click the column heading.

   The Number of Hosts list box provides the following information about Proxy Services activity:

   • Protocol---Protocol string representing the port number used for the connection: HTTP, FTP, HTTPS, and so on. For example, HTTP represents a connection made using port 80.
   • Hostname---DNS domain name or IP address of a host.
   • Users Accessed---Number of users who have requested information from the selected host.
   • Hit Volume---Number of times the requested information has been successfully delivered from the proxy server cache.
   • Miss Volume---Number of times the requested information was not found in the cache.
   • Hit Size---Total amount of data the proxy server has retrieved from its cache to satisfy user requests.
   • Miss Size---Total amount of data the proxy server did not find in its cache.

   The User Accessed list box provides the username---either the NDS or NDS or eDirectory name or IP address of the user, or the DNS domain name or the IP address.

4. To display additional types of host information, do one of the following:

   1. To display the records for a set of connections from a specific user to a specific host, click Display Records and enter a time range for the records you want displayed.

      For a U.S. English system, the dates are entered in the order of month, day, and year. The order is year, month, and day for a Japanese system; and day, month, and year for European language systems.

   2. To see a list of connections for users who have accessed a particular host, double-click an entry in the Hosts Statistics window.

      The Hosts Records Entries window displays, providing the following information about Proxy Services activity:

      • Entry Time---Time connection was established.
      • Username---NDS or NDS or eDirectory name or IP address of user.
      • Status---Whether the proxy server found the requested data in the cache (hit or miss).
      • Protocol---Protocol string representing the port number used for the connection: HTTP, FTP, HTTPS, and so on. For example, HTTP represents a connection made using port 80.
      • Hostname---DNS domain name or IP address of the accessed host.
      • Data Length---Amount of data transferred from the cache or the origin Web server.
