Statistics for used

Hello guys, we have BigIP 3900 and using it as reverse proxy (virtual servers, iRules). I need to get the statistics about: a) which web browsers + versions (e.g. Internet Explorer, Firefox) are used by users to connect to virtual servers (https). b) which SSL ciphers (e.g. RC4) are used by user SSL connection to connect to virtual servers (https). Do you know how to get these statistics? Is possible to get this statistics in GUI? Thank you, Hejbi

 

  • Hello,

    to get cipher statistics you can use:

    show ltm profile client-ssl profile_name
    

    the part of the output will be something like this:

    Ciphers
    Advanced Encryption Standard (AES)        9.8M
    Digital Encryption Standard (DES)         1.5M
    Rivest Cipher 2 (RC2)                        0
    Rivest Cipher 4 (RC4)                        0
    IDEA (old SSLv2 cipher)                      0
    No Encryption                                0
    

    to get user-agent information you can use irule:

    when HTTP_REQUEST { 
     log local0. "Client IP:[IP::client_addr] has been blocked with user agent :[HTTP::header User-Agent]" 
     }

      From GUI for ssl profile statistic: Local Traffic ›› Virtual Servers : Virtual Server List ›› virtualserver_name choose Statistics then under section "Profiles" choose ssl profile_name you need and you will get statistics.
