History Reports

CA NetMaster NM for TCP/IP records FTP, Telnet, connection, and Cisco channel card events in the event history database (IPLOG).

The TCP/IP reporting function produces online and printed reports from the database. These reports contain a list of events with details. This function also enables you to extract the data for analysis by exporting it to other data analysis and reporting tools such as Microsoft Excel.

The reporting function produces online reports by performing a search with specified criteria. It lets you do the following tasks:

List and view predefined reports about FTP, Telnet, connection, and Cisco channel card events
Use predefined search criteria to produce event reports
Define your own searches to produce event reports

Performance monitoring aggregates data from individual events into event rates, such as connections per time interval and FTP transfers per time interval. The optional ReportCenter component produces web-based reports on their trends.

To enable your region to collect events, use the IPEVENT parameter group in Customizer (/PARMS). For more information, see the Implementation Guide.

Note: Depending on your site-specific implementation, the same information about Telnet, FTP, and connection activities is also available in the activity log.
