hello,
i am using the mikrotik as proxy machine and using winbox for bandwith control. i want that i can see which websites are wacthing by my office workers right now and i can also see a complete log which user access which websites.is it possible kindly help me.
THX
To see the current IP addresses of the proxy clients and the web servers they are currently connecting to, try this command:
/ip proxy connections print
To get more detail (including full urls) you might want to run a Linux machine running Squid or some other Proxy server to get better logs.
the current proxy logs should be enough, you just need to find a program that can analyze them, and show you some report.
I often make things more complicated than they need to be.
To see the proxy logs normis mentioned use this command:
/system logging
add action=memory disabled=no prefix=“” topics=web-proxy,account
The log entries will look like this:
11:15:35 web-proxy,account 10.11.15.35 GET http://search.yahoo.com/favicon.ico action=allow cache=MISS
For debug information as well you can also try:
add action=memory disabled=no prefix=“” topics=web-proxy
(without account)
the logs will add extra info like this:
10:51:27 web-proxy,debug Response to “GET http://mozilla.mirror.facebook.com/firefox/releases/2.0.0.16/update/win32/en-US/firefox-2.0.0.16.complete.mar”:
