Cisco Cisco Web Security Appliance S670

Centralized 
Reporting

AsyncOS for Web 7.1 includes the Centralized Reporting feature which, when the 
Web Security appliance is managed by a Security Management appliance, allows 
you to configure the Web Security appliance so that the Security Management 
appliance maintains the reports.

You might want to enable Centralized Reporting when the Security Management 
appliance manages multiple Web Security appliances. This gives you a centralized 
view of web traffic across all Web Security appliances on the Security Management 
Appliance dashboard.

When you enable Centralized Reporting, only the System Capacity and System 
Status reports are available on the Web Security appliance. To view the other 
reports, connect to the Security Management appliance. The Web Security 
appliance no longer stores data for the other reports. 

For more information, see the “Enabling Centralized Reporting” section in the 
“Reporting” chapter of the Cisco IronPort AsyncOS for Web User Guide. You can 
view this chapter in the PDF or the online help.

Anonymized 
Usernames on 
Reporting Pages

AsyncOS for Web 7.1 allows you to make usernames unrecognizable in all reports. 
Configure this on the Security Services > Reporting page using the Anonymize 
usernames in reports setting. However, administrators always see usernames.

Enhanced: 
Reports

AsyncOS for Web 7.1 includes the following new reports:

Users

Web Sites

Web Tracking

It also includes updated information for many existing reports.

Due to all the reporting changes, when you upgrade to AsyncOS 7.1 for Web, all 
historical data stored on the Web Security appliance for the on-box reports will be 
erased. For more information, see 

For more information, see the “Monitoring” chapter of the Cisco IronPort AsyncOS 
for Web User Guide. You can view this chapter in the PDF or the online help.
