Apache)</h1>
<div><p>This scenario discusses how to enable cookie tracking
for your HTTP Server (powered by Apache).</p>
<div class="important"><span class="importanttitle">Important:</span> Information
for this topic supports the latest PTF levels for HTTP Server for i5/OS .
It is recommended that you install the latest PTFs to upgrade to the latest
level of the HTTP Server for i5/OS. Some of the topics documented here are
not available prior to this update. See <a href="http://www-03.ibm.com/servers/eserver/iseries/software/http/services/service.html" target="_blank">http://www.ibm.com/servers/eserver/iseries/software/http/services/service.htm</a> <img src="www.gif" alt="Link outside Information Center" /> for more information. </div>
<div class="section"><h4 class="sectiontitle">Scenario</h4><p>The JKL Toy Company (a fictitious company)
wants to be able to measure Web site visitor activity and trends. The JKL
Web administrator would like to try to measure how many new and unique
users visit the intranet Web site. Requiring users to obtain a userid and
password is the most accurate way track users; however, this method has
the disadvantage of forcing the intranet Web users to register for a userid
and password.</p>
<div class="p">Analyzing the data in the log file by IP address could
be used to track users. Two disadvantages to this method are:<ul><li>Some ISPs use dynamic IP addressing, assigning random IP addresses to
all users.</li>
<li>Some ISPs send all traffic through a proxy server, creating a log entry
for the IP address of the proxy server only.</li>
</ul>
</div>
<p>Setting a unique number in a cookie in the user's browser the
first time that they visit the Web site combined with using a log that
records cookies could be used to track users. This log can be analyzed
to show how many new cookies have been set and how many old cookies have
returned. In addition, the log can also be used to show the sequence of
URLs that a particular cookie used to navigate through the Web site. A
downside of this method is that users can shut off the browsers ability
to record cookies.</p>
<p>The JKL Web administrator has decided to use the
cookie method. The JKL Web administrator will store cookie information in
a new log called <strong>JKLCOOKIE_LOG</strong> using a new cookie called <strong>JKLCOOKIE</strong>.</p>
