Status Information
WinRoute activities can be well monitored by the administrator (or by other users with ap-
propriate rights). There are three types of information — status monitoring, statistics and
logs.
• Communication of each computer, users connected or all connections using WinRoute
can be monitored.
Note:
1. WinRoute monitors only traffic between the local network and the Internet. The
traffic within the local network is not monitored.
2. Only traffic allowed by traffic rules (see chapter 7 ) can be viewed. If a traffic
attempt which should have been denied is detected, the rules are not well defined.
• Statistics provide information on users and network traffic for a certain time period.
Statistics are viewed in the form of charts and tables. For details see chapter 20 .
•
Logs are files where information about certain activity is reported (e.g. error or warn-
ing reports, debug information etc.). Each item is represented by one row starting with
a timestamp (date and time of the event). In all language versions of WinRoute , reports
recorded are available in English only and they are generated by the WinRoute Firewall
Engine . For details, refer to chapter 22 .
The following chapters describe what information can be viewed and how its viewing can be
changed to accommodate the user’s needs.
