Status Information
WinRoute activities can be well monitored by the administrator (or by other users with ap-
propriate rights). There are three types of information — status monitoring, statistics and
logs.
• Communication of each computer, users connected or all connections using WinRoute
can be monitored.
Note:
1. WinRoute monitors only traffic between the local network and the Internet. The
traffic within the local network is not monitored.
2. Only traffic allowed by traffic rules (see chapter 7 ) can be viewed. If a traffic
attempt which should have been denied is detected, the rules are not well defined.
• Statistics provide information on users and network traffic for a certain time period.
Statistics are viewed in the form of charts and tables. For details see chapter 20 .
• Logs are files where information about certain activity is reported (e.g. error or warn-
ing reports, debug information etc.). Each item is represented by one row starting with
a timestamp (date and time of the event). In all language versions of WinRoute, reports
recorded are available in English only and they are generated by the WinRoute Firewall
Engine. For details, refer to chapter 22 .
The following chapters describe what information can be viewed and how its viewing can be
changed to accommodate the user’s needs.
19.1 Active hosts and connected users
In Status → Active Hosts, the hosts within the local network or active users using WinRoute for
communication with the Internet will be displayed.
Note: For more details about the firewall user’s logon see chapter 10.1 .
Look at the upper window to view information on individual hosts, connected users, data
size/speed, etc.
The following information can be found in the Active Hosts window:
Hostname
DNS name of a host. In case that no corresponding DNS record is found, IP address is
displayed instead.
