Site Grouping

The Site Grouping option allows you to group the traffic to multiple sites into a single Site Group. This option is useful for grouping the traffic to major search engines into recognizable names. For example, if someone went to the AltaVista search engine, you could use the Site Grouping option to display "AltaVista" instead of "digital.com". By default NetTracker is configured to group traffic to eleven major search engines.

To add a Site Group, click on the Add button. For Name of site group enter the name that you wish to have displayed for the Site Group. For Domain of site group enter the domain in which you wish to have the Site Group included in the Domain Summary. For example, to have the Site Group included in United States Commercial (.com) enter "United States Commercial".

To delete a Site Group, highlight the Site Group in the list box and click on the Delete button. To edit a Site Group, highlight the Site Group in the list box and click on the Edit button. Then make the desired changes and click on the Update button.

To add hosts or users to a Site Group, highlight the Site Group in the list box and click on the Members button. To add members to the Site Group click the Add button. Then select from the list boxes to create the request: Group sites "[That end with]", enter the hostname and domain to match in the next text box (e.g.: "www.sane.com"), and click on the Add button. Note that in the above example users can also use this option to request that NetTracker groups sites "[That match], [That start with] or [That contain]" a hostname or domain as a Site Group.

To delete a host or domain from a Site Group, highlight the host or domain in the list box and click on the Delete button. To edit a host or domain in a Site Group, highlight the host or domain in the list box and click on the Edit button. Then make the desired changes and click on the Update button.
