Summary:
When creating a custom report, you can add a Domain activity section to analyze the statistics for a given domain. As part of this custom report section, you can choose to Group domains together by application.
But what domains and applications are involved?
Problem:
At the time of writing, we only have the YouTube and GoogleVideo super-group.
This contains the following domains:
*.youtube.*
*.ytimg.*
*.youtube-nocookie.*
*.googlevideo.*
*.ggpht.
*
The *
indicates that all YouTube and GoogleVideo sub-domains and top level domains (or country codes) are included.
Note: Creating the domain super-group renders your report unsuitable for drill-down or feed-forward reporting. This is because the domains are only combined for that specific reporting instance; the underlying reporting data is not changed.
Solution:
- Create a custom report as detailed in https://help.smoothwall.net/Latest/Content/cgi-bin/reports/reports.htm.
- From the Available sections box, open the Guardian3 folder.
- Select Domain activity and add it to the Included sections box.
- From the new section that appears at the bottom of the page, click the Options tab.
- Click Advanced.
- Scroll down to the URL parsing panel.
- Select Group domains together by application.
- Add other relevant sections, options, and filters to the report.
- Scroll back to the top of the page and click Create report.
