[FW1] Reporting applications for Checkpoint logs

[John Schneider <jdschn@ibm.net>]

Greetings,
    Thanks to the many of you who contribute to this list.  Do any of
you know of products
that would run on either the NT or RS/6000 versions of Checkpoint and
improve the
reporting capabilities?  The Checkpoint logs contain quite a bit on
information, but not in
a very readable form.
    Some of my customers want reports that answer questions like:

1) who are my top users (in terms of number of bytes transferred, or
connections)
2) what are the top sites that were connected to (by node name or URL)
3) are any users going to objectionable sites (not active blocking
required here, just a
way to search against names like "XXX" or "adult" appearing in the site
name)

It is possible to write perl scripts and so on to do this stuff, but it
should not be necessary.  Does
Checkpoint itself give you anything like this?  I can't find it if it
does.

If you have any scripts of your own you could share, I would be very
grateful.

Thanks for any input.
John Schneider
