Directory Summary

To display the Directory Summary for a specified period of time, highlight Directory Summary in the first list box, select the desired time period in the second list box and click on the Enter button.

The Directory Summary presents the directory, the Last Download, and the number of Downloads (with the percentage of total Downloads) for the top ten directories (with options to view additional directories) viewed by visitors to your FTP server, for the selected time period.

To view the next ten directories, click on the highlighted "Next 10" located at the end of the summary. To view the last ten directories, click on the highlighted "Last 10" located at the end of the summary. To view the previous ten directories, click on the highlighted "Previous 10" located at the end of the summary. To view the first ten directories, click on the highlighted "First 10" located at the end of the summary. To view all of the directories, click on the highlighted number of total directories ("Directories represented: 10 out of xxx", where xxx = Total Directories).

To generate a summary containing only specific directories, enter the directory into the text box in the filter tool at the bottom of the summary and select from the list boxes to create the request: "Show all directories [that] [start with] [directory]" and click on the Enter button. To generate a summary that excludes views to specific directories, enter the directory into the text box in the filter tool at the bottom of the summary and select from the list boxes to create the request: "Show all directories [that do not] [start with] [directory]" and click on the Enter button. Note that in the above examples users can also use the filter tool to include or exclude directories that either [match], [end with] or [contain] the specified text entered in the text box.

If you have already used the filter tool to apply a filter, you can use the filter tool again to add additional filters to the previous filter. For example, you could use the filter tool to display all directories that start with /directory1 and then use the filter tool again to display all directories that start with /directory2. A combined report would then be displayed that includes all directories that start with /directory1 and all directories that start with /directory2. To start over, simply go back to the original Directory Summary without any filters applied. You can do this by selecting the Directory Summary and time period in the top frame and clicking the Enter button or by clicking the Back button in your browser.

To view the files in a specific directory, click on the highlighted directory. To get detailed information about each download, click on the corresponding highlighted number of Downloads. This Download Breakdown contains information about the Date and time of the download, the Host, the User, and the File for the specified directory.
