Streaming and Chat Sites Reports
The Streaming and Chat Sites Reports section includes
reports on streaming and chat sites visited. In order to identify your
external hosts, you need to first configure
your intranets by clicking the Intranet Settings
link from the Settings tab. When configured, all hosts
outside your configured
intranets will be considered as external hosts.
On the top right side of the Report screen, there will be three combo boxes. They are:
- Top 5
