Generate Per Client Reports
Client reports are one of many types of reports available on your Report Server as On-Demand reports. They include information from proxy log messages about an authenticated user, host name, or an IP address for the device you select. The Per Client Report includes a detailed activity summary for the specified client and the time range you select. You can choose one or more parameters to include in this report. Options include:
- User name or ID
- IP address
- Host name
If you choose to run the report on a user name or ID, make sure to specify the user name in the correct format for the authentication server you use for your network. If you use Active Directory, use the format username@<domain name>. If you use the local Firebox database, use the format username@Firebox-DB.
For more information about authentication servers, see Authentication Server Types.
You must also select the start date and time, and end date and time for the selected parameters. You can run a Per Client report from the Per Client Report page, or you can click a client link in a report to open a new report for that client. For more information, see the section Open a Per Client Report, or the topic View Reports in Report Manager.
