Generating Reports of Network
Activity
Historical Reports is a reporting tool that creates summaries and reports of Firebox
log activity. It generates these reports using the log files created by and stored on the
LiveSecurity Event Processor. Use Historical Reports to define reports, create filters,
and process reports for viewing in a standard Web browser.
You can customize reports to include exactly the information you need in a form that
is most useful to you. Using Historical Reports special features, you can define a
precise time period for a report, consolidate report sections to show activity across a
group of Fireboxes, and set properties to display the report data according to your
preferences.

1 Click the Historical Reports icon (shown at right).
You can also start Historical Reports from the WatchGuard installation
directory. The file name is

Viewing the reports list

Creating and editing reports
Use Historical Reports to design reports that specifically address the requirements of
your network security policy. You can customize reports by selecting sections to
include, consolidating report sections, specifying time filters, defining user and host
filters, and setting where and how the report is generated.
