Generate Reports

Generating Reports

While viewing all Enforcer profiles an easy method to generate reports for profiles also exists in the form of the “Generate” link available to each Enforcer profile. (Except for if access to the Enforcer Profile is denied)

Three main types of reports are accessible. They are: namely, network reports, specific IP reports and Specific Category reports. Network reports provide an easy to understand overview of the network traffic being utilised by this profile. Specific IP and Category reports are available to shed more insight into the usage of a particular IP address or the specific details of a certain category.

Reports provide valuable insight into your network traffic and can be used to measure performance, manage usage, guard against security threats and much more.
