FTP Statistics

Navigate to the MONITOR | Tools & Monitor > Packet Monitor page and select the Statistics tab. FTP Statistics displays the following information:

• Red – Automatic FTP logging is off
• Green – Automatic FTP logging is on
• Yellow – The last attempt to contact the FTP server failed, and logging is now off

To restart automatic FTP logging, see Restarting FTP Logging on page 85.

It also displays these statistics:

• On/off indicator
• FTP Server Pass/Failure count – the number of successful and failed attempts to transfer the buffer contents to the FTP server
• FTP Thread is Busy/Idle – the current state of the FTP process thread
• Buffer status – the status of the capture buffer

If automatic FTP logging is off, either because of a failed connection or simply disabled, you can restart it in Configure > Logging.
