Dashboard

On the Dashboard page, you can view the protection logs of all protected websites or instances for a specified time range, including yesterday, today, past 3 days, past 7 days, or past 30 days. On this page, event logs are displayed by different dimensions, including the number of requests and attack types, QPS, event distribution, top 10 attacked domain names, top 10 attack source IP addresses, and top 10 attacked URLs.

Prerequisites

A domain name has been added and connected to WAF.
WAF protection is enabled.
At least one protection rule has been configured for the domain name.

Specification Limitations

On the Dashboard page, protection data of a maximum of 30 days can be viewed.

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.

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.

Procedure

Log in to the management console.
Click in the upper left corner of the management console and select a region or project.
Click in the left upper corner and choose Security > Web Application Firewall to go to the Dashboard page.
In the upper part of the page, specify the website, instance, and time range for your query.
- By default, the information about all websites you add to WAF in all enterprise projects are displayed.
- Domain Names: shows information about websites added to the WAF instance. Click View to go to the Website Settings page and view details about domain names of protected websites.
- Query time: You can select Yesterday, Today, Past 3 days, Past 7 days, or Past 30 days.
View 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 of the 10 domain names with the most requests, attacks, and basic web protection, precise protection, CC attack protection, and anti-crawler protection actions.

**Table 2** Parameters in Security Event Statistics
Parameter	Description
Requests	You can view how many requests for your website as well as total attacks and attacks of each attack type.
QPS	Average number of requests per second for the domain name. For details about the values of 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.
Bytes Sent/Received	Bandwidth usage 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.
Event Distribution	Types of attack events Click an area in the Event Distribution area to view the type, number, and proportion of an attack.
Top 10 Attacked Domain Names	The ten most attacked domain names and the number of attacks on each domain name. Click View More to go to the Events page and view more protection data.
Top 10 Attack Source IP Addresses	The ten source IP addresses with the most attacks and the number of attacks from each source IP address. Click View More to go to the Events page and view more protection data.
Top 10 Attacked URLs	The ten most attacked URLs and the number of attacks on each URL. Click View More to go to the Events page and view more protection data.
