Output options for investigative reports
You can make adjustments to the way certain report choices and report results are displayed in summary and multi-level investigative reports, and specify the default page size when reports are output to PDF format.
These investigative reports configuration options are set in the wse.ini file (located by default in the C:\Program Files (x86)\Websense\Web Security\webroot\Explorer\ directory).
The following table lists the parameters that affect display and output of investigative reports, what each controls, and its default value. (Do NOT modify any other settings in the wse.ini file.)
Parameter
Description
maxUsersMenu
The database must have fewer users than this value (by default, 5000) to show User as a report choice in the Internet Use by list.
maxGroupsMenu
The database must have fewer groups than this value (by default, 3000) to show Group as a report choice in the Internet Use by list.
Note: There must be 2 or more groups for Group to appear in the Internet Use by list.
There also must be 2 or more domains for Domain to appear in the Internet Use by list. There is no maximum value for domains.
maxUsersDrilldown
This works with the warnTooManyHits parameter to control when the User option displays in red. The red lettering indicates that selecting User will produce a very large report, which could be slow to generate.
If there are more users than this value (by default, 5000), and more hits than the warnTooManyHits value, the User option displays red in various drop-down lists and values lists.
If there are more users than this value, but fewer hits than the warnTooManyHits value, the User option displays in normal color, as the resulting report will be a more reasonable size.
maxGroupsDrilldown
The Group option displays in red during drill down if the proposed report includes more groups than this number (by default, 2000). The red lettering indicates that selecting Group will produce a very large report, which could be slow to generate.
warnTooManyHits
This works with the maxUsersDrilldown parameter to control when the User option displays in red.
If there are more users than the maxUsersDrilldown value, but fewer hits than this value (by default, 10000), the User option does not display in red.
If there are more users than the maxUsersDrilldown value, and more hits than this value, the User option does display in red. The red lettering indicates that selecting User will produce a very large report, which could be slow to generate.
hitsPerPage
This determines the maximum number of items (by default, 100) displayed per page. (This does not affect printed reports.)
maxOutputBufferSize
This is the maximum amount of data (in bytes) that can be displayed on the main investigative reports page. If the requested data exceeds this limit (by default, 4000000, or, 4 million bytes), a message stating that some results are not shown appears in red at the end of the report.
Larger values enable you to display larger amounts of data in one report, if this is an issue. However, if you encounter memory errors, consider decreasing this value.
sendMulti
 
This option is disabled (0) by default. Set it to 1 (enabled) to divide very large, scheduled detail reports into multiple files. The number of records in each file is determined by the value set by recordBatchCount.
When this option is disabled, each scheduled detail report is divided into files of up to 500,000 records.
All reports are sent as a zip file and can be extracted with most common file compression utilities.
maxSlices
 
This is the maximum number of distinct slices (6 by default, maximum is 10) in a pie chart, including an Other slice, which combines all values that do not have individual slices.
timelineCompressionThreshold
 
This option is used only for User Activity by Day or Month, when the Group Similar Hits/View All Hits option is available. The report collapses all hits with the same category that occur within the number of seconds set here (by default, 10).
reportBatchCount
When sendMulti is enabled, this option is used to determine the number of records (by default, 10,000) included in a scheduled report. Any value over 500,000 is ignored and 500,000 is used.
PageSize
Investigative report results can be output to Portable Document Format (PDF) for easy distribution or printing. The page size (by default, Letter) can be:
*
A4 (8.27 X 11.69 inches)
*
Letter (8.5 X 11 inches)
