Modify BigIP Logs

Hi,

 

 

Can the logs that are generated on BigIP for Virtual servers and Pools, be analyzed in Webtrends. If not then can we modify the logs so they can be analyzed by Webtrends????

 

 

Is this possible.

 

 

Any inputs on this will be greatly appreciated.

 

 

Thanks in advance.

 

 

 

 

Regards,

 

KD.

    Hello,

     

     

    Do you know what format Webtrends is expecting? There are a couple of Codeshare examples for iRules which log details about each connection. I would imagine you could modify one of these to get what you're looking for.

     

     

    Log all TCP and HTTP connection details to a remote syslog server

    Custom Apache style logging
