Hi Antonie, and good day

Can you please advise in the plus/commercial version there will be advanced monitoring and logging as below:

1- more detailed report (per source/destination in IP)
2- How many times the policy/rule were been hit (No. of hits)
3- Files been Cached (what they are) in order to locate the most wanted files
4- Top ten (Files, Source-IP, Dest-IP, etc...)
5- Customized Reports (one technical, and one summarized for Top Management monthly meeting)
6- Customized Interface for Hikma (in order to unify with our web standards)
7- ability to add/insert web-page link into our websites
8- ability to export into CSV, PDF and Zipped for sent-to-email

Sorry for the long list, but wish all to be think about it in the coming version updates.

Hi Muhammad,

I sent a mail with more detail, but essentially yes. The Plus version will have a lot more detailed reporting like QoS / traffic policy graphs, traffic sessions and network top talkers.

Hi Antonie again, and many thanks for the quick response. Also, thanks for your update about the next version (plus).

Regarding the details, kindly find below:

1- Technical Reports:
consist of al technical information required (very detailed), and ability export to CSV and PDF
2- Management Reports:
consist of minimal information required (very summarized), only highlights the bold titles/figures (totals only), and ability export to email and PDF

Regarding Customization:
1- We have both Cisco and BlueCoat (developed with XML) web portals, and both support the ability to provide customized forms (web-portal login-page with Hikma LOGO, Disclaimer, all reports holds Hikma-IT brand and confidentiality words, etc...)
2- ability to embed such URL in our Intranet SharePoint portal for NOC Monitoring
3- different user access (admin-account for us, and account-operator for NOC Team)

Note:
sorry for not able to provide snapshot, in order to not avoid the Hikma policies

Thank you.

The summary and detailed level reporting will be available.

For fully customizable reports the first method available is to generate these reports based on data from SNMP, NetFlow or CSV. If there is sufficient demand, similar functionality like BlueCoat's XML custom reports can be introduced in the Central Manager device, which is currently scheduled for Q4.
