Proxy Log Storage Standard Edition Description
Proxy Log Storage Standard Edition is an advanced piece of software that gives you the possibility to monitor your proxy server’s usage and put together reports by analyzing log files. It contains a lot of powerful settings.
Setup and interface
Setting up this tool is fast, and the notable aspect about it is that it lets you make file associations with the .wpls and .log extensions, and add an exception to the Windows Firewall.
The program is wrapped in an approachable interface which consists of a normal window with a clear-cut look. At startup, you can use a workspace wizard to specify the log file location, whether we’re talking about a local path or network, FTP, HTTP, or an empty workspace.
Check out log files and create reports
It’s possible to add as many log files as you want, save the workspace to file, specify a date range to filter data, as well as to view processing log details. Reports can be previewed to find out the total number of lines, filtered items and size of each file.
What’s more, the software application lets you remove log files or edit their properties, generate and upload reports, or hide the toolbar and status bar.
Customize many program preferences
A wide range of settings can be configured. For instance, you can set the tool to put only bad files in the report, establish a custom log file format, select the file types to take into account for the documents, video, audio, downloads and images categories, or create filters (IP, login name, request, site, response code, proxy cache).
Plus, you can create a list with workgroups, add visitors by name or IP address, handpick the columns to include in the reports while excluding the rest (e.g. summary stats, unique IPs, protocols), enable email notifications, pick the output format between HTML and MHTML, edit the text above and below the page in the menu and report content, use the system date format, or switch to another UI language.
Evaluation and conclusion
We haven’t come across any stability issues in our tests, thanks to the fact that the app didn’t hang, crash or display error messages. It had a good response time and minimal impact on computer performance, using low CPU and RAM.
To conclude, Proxy Log Storage delivers an effective solution to help you verify a proxy server’s usage through its log files, and it’s backed by a lot of advanced settings.
