How to Export Logs

Steps

Note: The following example shows how to export a Traffic log. 
The process is similar for the other types of logs under the Monitor> Logs  section.

 

1. Go to Monitor > Logs > Traffic.

   

2. Click Export to CSV icon.

   

   An Exporting Logs popup window is displayed.

   

3. Click Download file.

   

   A CSV file is downloaded to the local Desktop.

   

4. Open the CSV file in Excel.

   

Note: Logs can be exported using Filters.  Refer to: How to Add, Save, Load, and Clear Log Filters.  Once the filter is applied, follow the same steps listed above.

Export logs to a SCP or FTP server
