Special Notes
The basic format is [key]=[value] where there is no whitespace between the key, the equals
character or the value.The value may be enclosed in quotes, e.g. [key]="[value]". Values
that contain embedded whitespace will always use quote delimiters. Implementers are encouraged
to check for, and remove if found, surrounding unescaped quote characters for each value.
Each log line is terminated by a linefeed character (ASCII LF, 0x10). Since these log files may
be moved between computers that could reformat the text file, implementers are encouraged to
recognize and accept log lines terminated by any of the standard text line termination schemes:
linefeed, carriage return (ASCII CR, 0x0D) or LF+CR as used by Windows/DOS.
Quotes ( " ) and backslashes ( \ ) within a value are escaped by prepending a backslash. Keys
will never contain such characters.
Null values may be represented by an empty string (e.g.[key]= or [key]="") or a dash character
(e.g. [key]=- or [key]="-"). Any value containing only a dash character should be treated as
if the value was not specified. Some fields will contain a null string if the value would otherwise
be undefined (e.g. for a blocked request, the filetype field will be meaningless).
The appliance supports Unicode usernames when authenticating users to an Active Directory or
eDirectory server. In these cases the user field will contain a UTF-8 string; the non-printable bytes
are escaped using the ‘\x’ prefix followed by the hexadecimal representation of the raw bytes
(e.g. \xAF). In the example above,
‘SILKNET2\\t\xc3\xb5m\xc3\xa4sj\xc3\xb3n\xc3\xa9s’ translates to
‘SILKNET2\tõmäsjónés’, where the username is:
