## To configure the HTTP Service access log

Use this page to enable and configure rotation for the access logs for the virtual servers. These logs are in the domain-dir`/logs/access` directory and are named as follows: virtual-server-name`_access_log%YYYY;%MM;%DD-%hh;h%mm;m%ss;s`.

Click Default to load the default values.

1. Check the File Rotation box to turn on file rotation.

   By default, file rotation is enabled.

2. From the Rotation Policy drop-down list, choose a policy.

   The only policy available is `time`.

3. In the Rotation Interval field, type a numeric value to specify the number of minutes between rotations of the access log.

   This field is valid only if the Rotation Policy is `time`. The default is 1440 minutes.

4. In the Rotation Suffix field, type a string value to specify the suffix to be added to the log file name after rotation.

   The default is `%YYYY;%MM;%DD;-%hh;h%mm;m%ss;s`.

5. In the Format field, enter a string value to specify the format of the access log.

   Use the formats shown in the following table. The default format is `%client.name% %auth-user-name% %datetime% %request% %status% %response.length%`.

   Data | Token
   --- | ---
   Client Host Name | `%client.name%`
   Client DNS | `%client.dns%`
   System Date | `%datetime%`
   Full HTTP Request line | `%request%`
   Status | `%status%`
   Response Content Length | `%response.length%`
   Referer Header | `%header.referer%`
   User-agent | `%header.user-agent%`
   HTTP Method | `%http-method%`
   HTTP URI | `%http-uri%`
   HTTP Query String | `%query-str%`
   HTTP Protocol Version | `%http-version%`
   Accept Header | `%header.accept%`
   Date Header | `%header.date%`
   If-Modified-Since Header | `%header.if-mod-since%`
   Authorization Header | `%header.auth%`
   Any valid HTTP header value defined in RFC 2616 (`any` is also a valid header value; it is specified as a variable here) | `%header.`any`%`
   Name of Authorized User | `%auth-user-name%`
   Value of a Cookie | `%cookie.value%`
   Virtual Server ID | `%vs.id%`

6. Click Save to save the changes, or Load Defaults to return to the default settings.
