Logging for Portal Access

This will create a session table entry based on SID:USER:RESOURCE and maintain that entry for at least an hour, so that no new logs are created for that user accessing that resource.

The next question then is what do you do with that information. I'm simply sending everything to syslog right now, but you could just as easily:

1. Send it to a remote syslog and/or High Speed Logger (HSL)
2. Send SNMP messages
3. Store it all in the session table and build a reports engine (iRule) based on that data.
4. Given that you may not care WHO is accessing the site, you could also potentially use a stat or iStat profile to capture unique visits over a period of time. The stat/iStat data would then be accessible from the shell, scriptable and exportable. And because you're accessing from the shell, you could also translate that resource URL back into the portal resource name.
