HostWatch
HostWatch
The HostWatch application displays active connections occurring on a 
Firebox in real time. It can also graphically represent the connections 
listed in a log file, either playing back a previous file for review or 
displaying connections as they are added to the current log file. To open 
HostWatch, click the HostWatch button (pictured at left) on the Control Center 
QuickGuide. For more information, see “HostWatch” on page 98.
Historical Reports
Historical Reports is a report-building tool that creates HTML reports 
displaying session types, most active hosts, most used services, URLs, 
and other data useful in monitoring and troubleshooting your network. 
To open Historical Reports, click the Historical Reports button (pictured 
at left) on the Control Center QuickGuide. For more information, see “Generating 
Reports of Network Activity” on page 109.
LiveSecurity Event Processor
The LiveSecurity Event Processor controls logging, report schedules, and 
notification. It also provides timing services for the Firebox. The Event 
Processor automatically runs when you start the machine on which it is 
installed.
Unlike other Firebox System applications, the Event Processor button does not 
appear in Control Center. To open the Event Processor, double-click the LiveSecurity 
Event Processor icon (pictured above) in the Windows Desktop tray. For more 
information, see “Setting up the LiveSecurity Event Processor” on page 73.
