Logs may be uploaded from your enterprise web proxy, next-generation firewall, and other devices directly to your tenant instance in the Netskope cloud. This can be done either from the Netskope tenant UI or by using SFTP.


Affected Products:

  • Netskope

Affected Operating Systems:

  • Windows
  • Mac
  • Linux

Logs may be uploaded from:

  • Netskope Tenant UI
  • Windows Using SFTP
  • Mac or Linux Using SFTP

Also, a Netskope administrator may verify Supported Log Formats.

Click the appropriate option for more information.

Note: For logs greater than 1000 MB in size, it is recommended to upload logs using SFTP.
  1. First, download log files from your supported vendor’s application.
    Note: If using an archive (such as .zip), you can only have one log file per archive, and it may not be binary.
  2. In a web browser, go to the Netskope web console:
    • United States Datacenter: https://[TENANT].goskope.com/
    • European Union Datacenter: https://[TENANT].eu.goskope.com/
    • Frankfurt Datacenter: https://[TENANT].de.goskope.com/
    Note: [TENANT] = The tenant name in your environment

    Note: After the logs are uploaded, it takes some time to parse the logs and show events in SkopeIT. The upload times vary based on log file sizes.

To successfully upload the logs over SFTP, Netskope requires a third-party SSH file transfer protocol (SFTP) client.

  • Examples of an SFTP client include (but are not limited to):
    • PuTTY
    • WinSCP
    • Filezilla
Note:
  • Dell does not endorse nor support any listed third-party product. The listed clients are meant to be an example of potential products a customer can use. Contact the product’s manufacturer for information about setup, configuration, and management.
  • Your SFTP Client UI may differ from the below screenshot examples.
  1. First, download log files from your supported vendor’s application.
    Note: If using an archive (such as .zip), you can only have one log file per archive, and it may not be binary.
  2. If you have previously imported the SSH private key into your SFTP client, go to Step 10. Otherwise, go to Step 3.
  3. In a web browser, go to the Netskope web console:
    • United States Datacenter: https://[TENANT].goskope.com/
