    Description

    The SonicWall can perform a rolling analysis of the event log to show the top 25 most frequently accessed Web sites, the top 25 users of bandwidth by IP address.
    Selecting Web Site Hits from the Report to view menu displays a table showing the URLs for the 25 most frequently accessed Web sites and the number of hits to a site during the current sample period. The Web Site Hits report ensures that the majority of Web access is to appropriate Web sites. 
    If leisure, sports, or other inappropriate sites appear in the Web Site Hits report, you can choose to block the sites.

    Under Log | View, users will get to see the message 'No Entries' instead of the web site hits even with the data collection running.
