Hello,

Does anyone know if Nagios Log Server handles SFTP Log server data to generate dashboard reports on number of files upload/download, users who download them, IP used, etc..?


Thanks,

Treg

I'm going to split this into multiple questions.

Does anyone know if Nagios Log Server handles SFTP Log server data?

Yes, NLS will take in any kind of log data.

to generate dashboard reports on number of files upload/download, users who download them, IP used, etc..?

NLS does not have reports, but yes, you can set up a Dashboard to monitor the different fields in your logs, provided your logs have this information. NLS would end up 'counting' a field for x occurrences of a word to tell you the 'total' number of downloads for example. You would need to configure all of this manually though, it isn't going to just 'generate' them.

Thanks for your reply.

When you say it needs to be setup manually, does this mean I can issue expressions for a filter to look for user name and the file download and or uploaded so it can count these and then generate a graph from the list it pulled?

Yes, a query and/or a filter.

Is there anything else we can help you with, or are you all set for now?
