How to Configure Statistics

  • Last updated on

The Barracuda CloudGen Firewall generates statistics for services, traffic and system processes. You can configure how the Barracuda CloudGen Firewall handles and archives statistics and select the action to be performed when corrupted data files are encountered, as well as modify the granularity and resolution of statistics data. Statistic entries are stored in the statistics database and can be viewed on the Statistics page.

Configure Statistics Settings

  1. Go to CONFIGURATION > Configuration Tree > Box > Infrastructure Services > Statistics.
  2. Click Lock.
  3. From the Corrupted Data Action list, select how corrupted data should be handled:
    • Delete – Corrupted data is deleted.
    • Archive – Corrupted data will be moved to a lost+found directory.
  4. From the Disc Write list, select whether statistical data should be recorded or not.
  5. Enable Skip Null Stats if 0 byte and/or 0 connection statistics should not be written.

    To prevent statistics queries resulting in excessive CPU load, decrease the process priority by setting a lower value i n the Query Process Priority field (0 = high priority,19 = lowest priority) for the statistics process.

  6. Click Send Changes and Activate.

Configure Statistics Cooking

Do not change the Resolution setting while the CloudGen Firewall is in production use, as that will result in incomplete cook instances.
