Reporting System - Alcatel-Lucent Security Management Server (SMS) Release 9.4 Technical Overview

Alcatel-Lucent Security Management Server (SMS)

Reporting System

...................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
Overview
The SMS has the ability to generate HTML-based reports, and serve them via its own
internal secure web server (HTTP or HTTPS). These reports are basically reformatted
versions of the SMS logs, with full filtering and sorting capabilities. Reports may be
limited to specific physical devices, Virtual Firewalls, time period ranges, or several
other criteria. Reports may also be memorized such that they may be run again later,
with other matching criteria.
Reports include sessions over time, policy snapshots, administrator events, auditing of
modifications made by administrators to objects managed by the SMS, and Brick zone
rule and ruleset usage counts.
The SMS provides a number of preconfigured reports, to allow fast initial deployment.
Reports are stored per-administrator, so each system administrator may keep track of
his own information, as needed.
