Web Filtering Statistics Page

This view gives you a live, ‘at-a-glance’ view of the filtering status. To access click
‘Web Filtering’ link at the top of the screen.

The time scales for the data to be generated for viewing as a summary are the last
day, 7 days, month or year, and this can be selected by choosing the
corresponding option from the drop down at the top of the page.

The graphs presented are as follows:

Filtering Blocked - plots the number of web requested blocked due to filtering
rules for the given time period.

HTTP Hits - plots the number of HTTP hits for a given time period.

Top 10 Categories by Connection – bar chart lists the top requested filtering
categories by number of connections.

Top 10 Users by Connection – bar chart lists the most active users (by
directory username or IP address) by number of connections.

Pages Blocked (table): This table displays all the filtering events caught by the
web security service for the given time period. The table shows 100 entries at
a time and orders them by most recent. There are links at the bottom of the
table to step back in lots of 100, until you reach the very first page filtered by
the web security service for the given time period. For each page blocked
instance caught, the table will display:

The date and time the page was blocked.

The reason it was blocked.

The internal IP address from within your organization that the request
originated.

The user group that the originator of request belongs to.

The URL of the requested page that triggered the block.
