Screen OS

hi gurus, is there a way to monitor web access on the firewall using NS-50?

 

Thanks for any ideas.

#netscreen
#webaccess
#firewall
#monitor

Hi,

 

The question is not very clear,

Do you want to monitor who accesses the firewall via WebGUI ?

Or do you want to monitor if firewall is always accessible via Web ?

Or Do you want to track the changes made via Web ?

hi sarab, sorry about that.

 

actually, what I mean is monitor site visits of my users. let's say if i got user1 and user2.

 

I just want to check what websites user1 and user2 are visiting. whether they always access sites that they shouldn't be accessing.

 

is it possible to monitor site visits on the firewall? using user's workstation IP Address or MAC Address.

 

hope it's clear, thank you in advance.

 

 

I got your question now. However that won't be possible on Netscreen. All you can do is monitor the policy logs and will get the IP based info and not the URLs. If you don't want the users to go to certain websites, you can use URL filtering. In which case it will give an event log For the websites blocked by URL filtering.

hi sarab, just one more question is there a juniper product which has this features to monitor or logs which websites are being visited by a particular user or local ip address?

 

thanks again 🙂

Hi,

 

I think any SA series box should be able to do that.

You can dig more on these products on Juniper website.
