NAME

       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).
