Cisco Cisco Email Security Appliance C170 Guia Do Utilizador

Exports that stream data show begin and end timestamps for each raw “interval” of time. Two begin and 
two end timestamps are provided — one in numeric format and the other in human-readable string 
format. The timestamps are in GMT time, which should make log aggregation easier if you have 
appliances in multiple time zones.

Note that in some rare cases where the data has been merged with data from other sources, the export 
file does not include timestamps. For example, the Outbreak Details export merges report data with 
Threat Operations Center (TOC) data, making timestamps irrelevant because there are no intervals.

Exports also include the report table key(s), even in cases where the keys are not visible in the report. In 
cases where a key is shown, the display name shown in the report is used as the column header. 
Otherwise, a column header such as “key0,” “key1,” etc. is shown.

Most exports stream their data back to the client because the amount of data is potentially very large. 
However, some exports return the entire result set rather than streaming data. This is typically the case 
when report data is aggregated with non-report data (e.g. Outbreaks Detail.)

Reporting in AsyncOS involves three basic actions:

You can create Scheduled Reports to be run on a daily, weekly, or monthly basis. 

You can generate a report immediately (“on-demand” report).

You can view archived versions of previously run reports (both scheduled and on-demand).

Configure scheduled and on-demand reports via the Monitor > Scheduled Reports page. View archived 
reports via the Monitor > Archived Reports page.

Your appliance will retain the most recent reports it generates, up to 1000 total versions for all reports. 
You can define as many recipients for reports as you want, including zero recipients. If you do not 
specify an email recipient, the system will still archive the reports. If you need to send the reports to a 
large number of addresses, however, it may be easier to create a mailing list rather than listing the 
recipients individually. 

By default, the appliance archives the twelve most recent reports of each scheduled report. Reports are 
stored in the 

/saved_reports

 directory of the appliance. (See 

 for more information.) 

You can choose from the following report types:
