説明

Is your request related to a problem? Please describe. It is hard to follow the flow of the protocol logging and call out possible issues.

Describe The Request Create a new script that is able to assist with SMTP protocol logging review.

Key points to included:

  • Generic review of the log to find any issues like sessions being started but never used
  • Following a single message from start to finish hopping between servers
    • Call out possible logs missing for full review
  • Call out large time gaps between entries - Example: BDAT sending 700 bytes the next entry is a session closed 5 minutes later.
  • Able to run on Exchange - Made easier to hop between servers following a message due to EMS
  • Able to run on Engineer computer who collected the logs for off-site review
  • If entire message is found and delivered, do a report that includes time stamps and flow of the message

調査方針
Examine existing log parsing tools in the repository. Understand the format of Exchange SMTP protocol logs (typically text files). Create a script that can scan logs for anomalies like abandoned sessions, track message flow across multiple servers, and detect large time gaps. Consider adding options for reporting and exporting results.
