Scheduling Traffic Logs Gathering Tasks

The Hub Transport Server role, which is responsible for handling all the mail flow within the organization, logs all the email traffic data across the Exchange objects in the Message Tracking Logs. Exchange Reporter Plus collects the traffic data from these log files and stores it as raw data for producing the following "Drill down reports".

1. Intra – Organizational Traffic reports

2. Overall Traffic from/to Internet reports

3. Traffic from/to Internet (By Domain) reports

4. Traffic from/to Internet (By User) reports

These raw data are further processed and aggregated to get hourly and daily email traffic reports.

Scheduling Traffic Logs Task can be done from the Task Scheduling option of Exchange Reporter Plus.
