Viewing the Dashboard

Updated on 2025-01-23 GMT+08:00

On the Dashboard page, you can view the protection event logs by website or instance. You can select a specific time range, including yesterday, today, past 3 days, past 7 days, or past 30 days. You can also specify a time range no longer than 30 days. On this page, protection event logs are displayed by different dimensions, including the number of requests and attack types, QPS, bandwidth, response code, event distribution, top 5 attacked domain names, top 5 attack source locations, top 5 error pages, top 5 attack source IP addresses, and top 5 attacked URLs. On the Bot Protection Statistics page, you can view the traffic distribution, traffic trends, and top event sources of bot protection.

Statistics on the Dashboard page are updated every two minutes.

NOTE:

If you have enabled enterprise projects, you can select your enterprise project from the Enterprise Project drop-down list and view security statistics data of the project.

Prerequisites

Specification Limitations

You can view the protection data of a maximum of 30 days.

How to Calculate QPS

The QPS calculation method varies depending on the time range. For details, see Table 1.

Table 1 QPS calculation

Time Range

Average QPS Description

Peak QPS Description

Yesterday or Today

The QPS curve is made with the average QPS in every minute.

The QPS curve is made with each peak QPS in every minute.

Past 3 days

The QPS curve is made with the average QPS in every five minutes.

The QPS curve is made with each peak QPS in every five minutes.

Past 7 days

The QPS curve is made with the maximum value among the average QPS in every five minutes at a 10-minute interval.

The QPS curve is made with each peak QPS in every 10 minutes.

Past 30 days

The QPS curve is made with the maximum value among the average QPS in every five minutes at a one-hour interval.

The QPS curve is made with the peak QPS in every hour.

NOTE:

Queries Per Second (QPS) indicates the number of requests per second. For example, an HTTP GET request is also called a query. The number of requests is the total number of requests in a specific time range.

  1. Log in to the management console.
  2. Click in the upper left corner of the management console and select a region or project.
  3. Click in the upper left corner and choose Security & Compliance > Web Application Firewall to go to the Dashboard page.
  4. In the upper part of the page, select an enterprise project from the Enterprise Project. drop-down list. Then, you can view the details about websites you add to WAF in the selected enterprise project.
  5. Check resource protection overview in the Protection Overview area.

    • View the total number of domain names, the number of domain names that have been connected to WAF, the number of domain names that fail to be connected to WAF, and the number of domain names that fail to be resolved by DNS.
    • Product Details: In this area, you can check what WAF resources you have. You can click to go to the Product Details page and view quota details.
    Figure 1 Protection Overview

  6. Query security data in the Security Event Statistics area.

    • By default, protection details about all websites add to all WAF instances in all enterprise projects for the logged-in account are displayed. You can query details by website, instance, and time range. The time range can be yesterday, today, past 3 days, past 7 days, or past 30 days. You can also specify a custom time range that is no longer than 30 days.
    • You can select Compare or Tile to view data.
    • By day: You can select this option to view the data gathered by the day. If you leave this option unselected, you have the following options:
      • Yesterday and Today: Security event data is gathered every minute.
      • Past 3 days: Security event data is gathered every 5 minutes.
      • Past 7 days: Security event data is gathered every 10 minutes.
      • Past 30 days: Security event data is gathered every hour.
    Figure 2 Security Event Statistics
    Table 2 Security Event Statistics

    Section

    Description

    Section 1 shows how many requests, attacks, and attacked pages by attack type over the specified time range.

    • Requests: shows the page views of the website, making it easy for you to view the total number of pages accessed by visitors in a certain period of time.
    • Attacks: shows how many times the website are attacked.
    • You can view how many pages are attacked by a certain type of attack within a certain period of time.
    • You can click Show Details to view the details about the 10 domain names with the most requests, attacks, and basic web protection, precise protection, CC attack protection, bot mitigation, and anti-crawler protection actions.

    Section 2 shows more security metrics about Requests, QPS, TX/RX Bandwidth, Response Code, and more.

    • Requests: You can view how many requests for your website as well as total attacks and attacks of each attack type.
    • QPS: You can learn of the average number of requests per second for the domain name. For details about QPS, see How to Calculate QPS.

      Queries Per Second (QPS) indicates the number of requests per second. For example, an HTTP GET request is also called a query.

    • TX/RX Bandwidth: bandwidth used by access traffic to the domain name.

      The value of sent and received bytes is calculated by adding the values of request_length and upstream_bytes_received by time, so the value is different from the network bandwidth monitored on the EIP. This value is also affected by web page compression, connection reuse, and TCP retransmission.

    • Response Code: Response codes returned by WAF to the client or returned by the origin server to WAF along with the corresponding number of responses. You can click WAF to Client or Origin Server to WAF to view the corresponding information.

      The number of response codes is accumulated based on the sequence of response codes (from left to right) in the lower part of the chart. The number of response codes is the difference between two lines. If the value of a response code is 0, the line of the response code overlaps that of the previous response code.
