History Parameters

This section describes the history parameters used to import servers from history or to get history records from a server.

Note: These history parameters are not case-sensitive. So filtering history records based on these parameters returns case-insensitive results. For example, specifying USER01 as the Requesting User ID returns the same results as specifying user01.

Selected Server Information

The first line contains information about the server whose history record is to be searched.

If both SSL and non-SSL ports are specified for the server, you can check the Use SSL box on this line and the SSL port will be used to connect to the server; otherwise, the non-SSL port will be used.

Start Date and Time

Minimum File Size

Limits the history request to only those file transfers where the number of bytes transferred is equal to or greater than the value specified.

This value can be a 1- to 10-digit number, where the last digit can be either another numeric digit or a 1-character qualifier, in the form nnnnnnnnn(n|x), where x can be one of the following qualifiers:
