HTTP (Proxy) log

HTTP (Proxy) log is a powerful tool that helps you keep track of the users activities on the Internet. It provides more user-friendly information about users accessing the web than you would get from the Debug log.

When does the log work?

HTTP (Proxy) log displays only data going through the Proxy Server of WinRoute. It means, if you want to get data from the Proxy server you should force your users to go through the Proxy server. See the Firewall Examples or Proxy Server chapters.

Also - you have to enable the log access to the Proxy Server configuration.
