    • View the content of a reverse proxy log file
      1. Select the log file that you want to view.
      2. Click View. The content of the log file is displayed. By default, the last 100 lines of a log file are displayed if the file is longer than 100 lines. You can define the number of lines to display by entering the number in the Number of lines to view field and then click Reload. Optionally, you can provide a value in the Starting from line field to define the start of the lines. If the Starting from line field is set, then the Number of lines to view field determines how many lines to view forward from the starting line. If the Starting from line field is not set, then the Number of lines to view field determines how many lines to view from the end of the log file.
        Note: The maximum size that can be returned is 214800000 lines. If a size greater than that is specified, then the maximum (214800000 lines) is returned.
      3. Optional: Click Export to download the log file.
        Note: You must configure the software to block pop-up windows in your browser to allow pop-up windows for the appliance before files can be exported.
