Method of collectively managing dispersive log, network system and relay computer for use in the same
First Claim
1. A network system with a function of collectively managing dispersive logs, said network system includes multiple networks having relay computers and computers, and a network including said relay computers which are connected to one another, wherein communication between said computers which belong to different networks being performed via multiple relay computers of said relay computers, and a management computer, said management computer comprising:
- means for receiving a log-check instruction and transmitting request information of the log check to a relay computer belonging to the same network as the computer concerned; and
means for receiving result information of the log check and outputting the result information,wherein each of said relay computers comprises;
log recording means for recording log information on a communication relayed by said relay computer and identifier information for identifying the communication while associating the log information and identifier information with each other,log check means for searching the log information corresponding to the request information of the log check which is received from said management computer or another relay computer and generating the result information of the log check,request information transmitting means for transmitting the request information of the log check to another relay computer, andmeans for transmitting the result information thus generated and the result information received from said other relay computer to a relay computer or a management computer which is a request origin.
