Logging and Reporting Settings Definitions

• What is the difference between Traffic and Traffic Summary?
  • The traffic summary is a roll up of all the traffic logs summarized every 15 minutes.  These summaries have many of the same fields as the detailed traffic logs, but the time stamps and other less commonly used fields are removed.  To see what fields are in common,  look at the custom report columns for traffic vs traffic summary.
• What is the difference between Traffic Summary and Daily Traffic Summary?
  • The hourly, daily, and weekly summaries are roll ups of the 15 minute summaries on an hourly basis and a roll up of the hourly summaries on a daily basis and a roll up of the daily summaries on a weekly basis.  The summary reports are used on the ACC and custom reports that select the summary data bases.
• What kind of information is present in Traffic Summary and Threat Summary?
  • It is the same information as the raw logs just summarized into 15 minute intervals with a few less commonly used columns removed.
