The Activity log is a record of every change made to your firewall. It shows what was changed, who changed it, which IP address or list was affected, and when. Use it to check what happened, or to find out who changed a setting.

The activity log shows changes made by people and API keys. To see attacks on your IP addresses, use Attack logs instead.

​
Open the activity log

Click Activity log in the sidebar, or go to network.freakhosting.com/logs.
Activity log table with Action, Type, User, Target and Time columns, showing entries such as Filter Applied, Profile Applied, Entry Added and IP Settings Updated with green, red and blue type badges

The activity log

The newest entries are at the top. Click the refresh icon to load new entries. The time of the last update is shown next to it.

​
Read an entry

Each row is one change.

​
Types

​
Find a specific change

1

Filter by type

Open the All actions menu and choose Applied, Removed or Administrative.
2

Search

Type in Search user, resource or details. You can search for:
  • a person’s name or email
  • an IP address or IP list name
  • a detail such as a port number, HTTP or BLACKLIST
3

Check the details

Read the second line under Action to see exactly what changed.

​
Common questions you can answer with the log

Search for the server’s IP address. Look for Filter Removed, Profile Applied or IP Settings Updated around the time the problem started. The User column shows who made the change.
Search for the address or the list name. Look for an Entry Added row. The details line shows the address and the action, for example action: BLACKLIST.
If the change appears in the activity log, it was saved. For filters, the change is also sent to the protection network straight away.
Not every action is listed. For example, creating an API key and sending a test notification aren’t recorded. Clear the type filter and search box, then refresh the page. If a firewall change is still missing, open a ticket.
Your role may not include permission to view the activity log. Ask the organization owner to check your role. See Team members and roles.
Want an alert when firewall rules change, instead of checking the log? Turn on the Rule applied and Rule removed events in Notifications.
