Log > ViewPoint
SonicWALL ViewPoint is a Web-based graphical reporting tool that provides unprecedented
security awareness and control over your network environment through detailed and
comprehensive reports of your security and network activities. ViewPoint’s broad reporting
capabilities allow administrators to easily monitor network access and Internet usage, enhance
security, assess risks, understand more about employee Internet use and productivity, and
anticipate future bandwidth needs.
ViewPoint creates dynamic, real-time and historical network summaries, providing a flexible,
comprehensive view of network events and activities. Reports are based on syslog data
streams received from each SonicWALL appliance through LAN, Wireless LAN, WAN or VPN
connections. With ViewPoint, your organization can generate individual or aggregate reports
about virtually any aspect of appliance activity, including individual user or group usage
patterns, evens on specific appliances or groups of appliances, types and times of attacks,
resource consumption and constraints, and more.
