Web Server Logging
Topics:
You can use the Web server logging feature to send logs of
HTTP and HTTPS requests to a client system for storage and
retrieval. This feature has two components: the Web log
server, which runs on the Citrix
®
 NetScaler
®
 appliance, and
the NetScaler Web Logging (NSWL) client, which runs on the
client system. When you run the client, it connects to the
NetScaler. The NetScaler buffers the HTTP and HTTPS request
log entries before sending them to the NSWL client, and the
client can filter the entries before storing them. You can log
HTTP and HTTPS requests for all of your Web servers on one
NSWL client system.
To configure Web server logging, you first enable the Web
logging feature on the NetScaler and configure the size of the
buffer for temporarily storing the log entries. Then, you
install NSWL on the client system. You then add the NetScaler
IP address (NSIP) to the NSWL configuration file. You are now
ready to start the NSWL client to begin logging. You can
customize Web server logging by making additional
modifications to the NSWL configuration file (log.conf).
