TestLogServer parameters
TestLogServer uses input from parameters you enter as part of a command. (See Running TestLogServer, for details on executing the command.)
Each parameter should be preceded by a dash (-) and followed by a space and value (argument), if indicated. Parameters may be entered in any order.
The supported parameters are:
Parameter | Description |
---|---|
-file |
Used to direct output to a file, and to specify the file name. By default, the file is created in the bin directory (C:\Program Files\Websense\Web Security\bin) on the TestLogServer machine. For example:
By default, TestLogServer sends output to the console. If you are running the utility during a time of high traffic, the scrolling output may be difficult to read. |
-forward |
Used to forward data from TestLogServer to Log Server. This prevents loss of log data while troubleshooting is occurring. Use this parameter and include the Log Server IP address and port, in the following format:
|
-help | Used to display a list of TestLogServer parameters. |
-iprange |
Used to specify the range of source IP addresses from which to display logging data. For example:
Do not include a dash between the two IP addresses. This parameter is valuable if you are researching logging traffic at times of high load. |
-nopp |
Used to omit formatting and display data in binary format. Requires the -file parameter. This parameter is used primarily for debugging. |
-onlyip |
Used to display data for a single IP address. For example:
|
-port |
Used to specify the TestLogServer listening port. By default, 55805 (the Log Server default listening port) is used. If the default port is used, Log Server must be stopped before TestLogServer is run. For this reason, an alternate port is typically specified. Any custom port must also be added to the page in Security Manager so that Filtering Service forwards data correctly. |
-raw |
Used to display all of the raw data that TestLogServer receives. Both formatted and raw binary data are shown. This parameter is used primarily for debugging. |
