Description

If present, the Chart Top Domains (domains) option indicates that wusage should output information about the Internet domains which accessed the server. If the Chart Top Domains (domains) option does not appear or is set to off, no domain-related information will be included in reports. If your access log does not contain full host names for most sites, the domains option will not produce interesting reports unless the DNS Resolution (IPs->Names) (dns) option is set to on, which can be a very slow operation, although performance has been improved under Unix in Wusage 7.0. Domain reporting is useful to determine which Internet domains, such as com (commercial, usually US), edu (educational, usually US), and ca (Canada), accessed the server most often. Using the Domain Groups (Continents) (domaingroups) option, you can also combine accesses from several domains under one name. If your server is exclusively accessed from within an Intranet, be sure to check out the And Subdomains Of (subdomainsof) option. This information often proves to be valuable demographic data about your users. See also How Many Domains? (topdomains), Fake DNS (fakedns), Domain Groups (Continents) (domaingroups), And Subdomains Of (subdomainsof), Top Domains Report: Sort by (domainsorder), Top Domains Report: Alphabetize Report (domainsalpha), Top Domains Report: Show Bytes (domainsbytes), Top Domains Report: Show Visits (domainsvisits), and And These Subdomains (subdomains).
