welf_proxy2dlf - convert logs in WebTrends Enhanced Log Format to proxy DLF SYNOPSIS
welf_proxy2dlf file DESCRIPTION
welf_proxy2dlf converts firewall logs in the WebTrends Enhanced Log Format into the proxy DLF. That format is defined at the following URL: http://www.netiq.com/partners/technology/welf.asp This converter also supports the SonicWall extensions. A list of firewall products that supports that format can be found at the following URL: http://www.netiq.com/products/fwr/compatible.asp EXAMPLES
To process a log as produced by a WebTrends proxy: $ welf_proxy2dlf < welf-proxy.log welf_proxy2dlf will be rarely used on its own, but is more likely called by lr_log2report: $ lr_log2report welf_proxy < /var/log/welf-proxy.log IMPLEMENTATION NOTES
Welf log files contains information about many applications: proxies, packet filters, IDS. IDS and packet filters information is handled by the firewall superservice, whereas the proxy information is handled by the proxy supersevice. This converter will only convert records with a proto, src and dst field. All other records are ignored (they won't be ignored by the firewall superservice). SEE ALSO

welf2dlf - convert firewall logs in WebTrends Enhanced Log Format to DLF SYNOPSIS
welf2dlf file DESCRIPTION
welf2dlf converts firewall logs in the WebTrends Enhanced Log Format into the firewall DLF. That format is defined at the following URL: http://www.netiq.com/partners/technology/welf.asp This converter also supports the SonicWall extensions. A list of firewall products that supports that format can be found at the following URL: http://www.netiq.com/products/fwr/compatible.asp IMPLEMENTATION NOTES
Since the firewall DLF only supports packet filters, not all records will be mapped to DLF. Dropped packets messages (those with a field msg="XXX packet dropped") will be mapped to denied DLF packet. (As well as all msg="TCP connection dropped" records). Those packets will have a length of 0 (that's a limitation of the format which don't log that information on dropped packet). Messages with a proto= field set will be interpretted as "permitted" "packet". That's not exactly "right" because this message really represent a "packets flow" and not a single packet. Other records will be ignored. You may use the welf_proxy service in the proxy superservice to extract proxy level information from WELF logs. EXAMPLES
To process a log as produced by WebTrends: $ welf2dlf < welf.log welf2dlf will be rarely used on its own, but is more likely called by lr_log2report: $ lr_log2report welf < /var/log/welf.log THANKS
