Anti-DDoS:Fields in logs

Last Updated:May 12, 2025

This topic describes all fields in the logs of Anti-DDoS Origin.

The fields are classified into the following types based on features:

  • Event fields: record information about the events that occur on the protected assets. The events include traffic scrubbing, blackhole filtering, and traffic rerouting. The information includes the occurrence time and the status of the events.

  • Traffic scrubbing fields: record information about the traffic that is denied or allowed by different mitigation policies during traffic scrubbing.
