Bot Report
Use the Bot Report to monitor bot traffic for the past 24 hours.

Firewall events
You can see bot-related actions by going to Firewall > Overview. Any requests challenged by this product will be labeled Super Bot Fight Mode in the Service field. This allows you to observe, analyze, and follow trends in your bot traffic over time.
