Extended Logging Properties

Use the following window to specify which fields are logged. If you are using EtherneTV Reporter, all fields must be selected. The items in parentheses (e.g. cs-username) refer to the header field shown in the actual log file (see Figure 15 below). The fields are self- explanatory and most are standard W3C fields. (See http://www.w3.org/TR/WD- logfile.html for more about W3C log file formats.) Note that the fields used in each log will vary slightly and unused fields are marked with a hyphen "-". Note that the following non- standard fields may be incompatible with some reporting tools and can be de-selected: x-address, x-port, and x-duration. For best results with log analysis tools, do not de-select any other fields.
