What is the Log Analyzer?
The WS_FTP Server Log Analyzer parses specified logs created by WS_FTP Server to provide a comprehensive analysis of transfer data. This breakdown is presented on the Tabs in the Log Analyzer dialog, where it is broken down to show specific types of information.
The following, is a list of items on this dialog:
- Start Date. This sets the beginning of the range of dates you want to retrieve logs for.
- End Date. This is the end of the range of dates you want to retrieve logs for.
- Log save dir. Enter the full path of the local directory where you want to save the retrieved log files.
- Delete remote log files after transfer. Select this option to have the files deleted from the server once they are retrieved.
- Parse Logs. Click this button to start the parsing/analyzing process.
- Export Logs. Click this button to convert the retrieved logs to W3C Extended Log format.
- Cancel. Click this button to cancel the current operation.
Using the Log Analyzer
To use the Log Analyzer, you must first identify the FTP server that you want to gather logs from.
Once the server connection has been configured, and the information on the Log Analyzer dialog has been entered, click the Parse Logs button to continue. The Log Analyzer will then make a connection to that server and download the Log found in the specified date range to the temporary directory identified in the Log save dir directory. From there, it will analyze the logs and populate the various tabs found on this dialog.
