Self-service search for Gateway 编辑

Use the self-service search feature to get insights into the user events received from the Citrix Gateway data source. When users access their network resources such as file servers, applications, websites through Citrix Gateway, events are generated for each user connection. Some examples of user events are such as authentication stage, authorization type, and VPN session code. Citrix Analytics for Security receives these events and displays them on the self-service search page. You can view the users and their access details.

For more information on the search functionalities, see Self-service search.

Select the Gateway data source

To view the Gateway events, select Gateway from the list. By default, the self-service page displays the events for the last one day. You can also select the time period for which you want to view the events.

Note

Alternatively, you can access the Self-service search for Gateway page from the Security > Users > Access Summary dashboard. In successful login scenarios, you can access the data by the status code. For more information, see the Access Summary dashboard.

Specify search query to filter events

Place your cursor in the search box to view the list of dimensions for the Gateway events. Use the dimensions and the operators to specify your query and search for the required events.

For example, you want to view the events for a user “ns133” where the VPN status code is “successful login”.

1. Enter “user” in the search box to choose the related dimension.

   

2. Select User-Name and enter the value “ns133” using the equal operator.

   

   

3. Select the AND operator and then select the Status Code dimension. Enter the string “Successful login” for Status Code using the equal operator.

   

   To identify the possible string values for Status Code, expand the Status Code filter list and use the filter name as the string in your search query.

   

4. Select the time period and click Search to view the events on the DATA table.
