MikroTik logs various system events and status information. These Logs are saved in routers memory (RAM), disk, file, sent by email or even sent to remote syslog server. All those logs are saved in Router’s local memory can be viewed from Log menu and any log entry contains time and date when event occurred. But these local log info is not enough for analyzing and reports of user’s activity. For make use of report and analysis on logs, we will need to configure a remote syslog server WebProxy Log Analyzer there by giving us the leverage to carryout different analysis of desired information.

WebProxy-Log is a syslog server based on Windows. Webproxy-log requires configuration at two parts.

</ol>
I assume that you know the basic configuration of MikroTik Router. So lets get to work :) 
<div>
MikroTik Part</div>
 
<ol>
<li>Login to your MikroTik router with Winbox (Skip step 2-6 if you have already enable web proxy in transparent mode)</li>
<li>Goto IP -> Web Proxy and Click Enable then Click OK (Web Proxy Enabled :-) )</li>
<li>Now goto IP -> Firewall -> NAT and Click Plus (+)</li>
<li>On General Tab</li>
<ol>
<li>Chain : dstnat</li>
<li>Src Address : 192.168.88.0/24 (This my LAN IP Network, Enter yours)</li>
<li>Protocol : 6(tcp)</li>
<li>Dst Port : 80</li>
</ol>
<li>On Action Tab</li>
<ol>
<li>Action : redirect</li>

</ol>
<li>Click Ok</li>

<ol>

</ol>
<li>Now Click on Rules tab and then Click (+)</li>
<li>on New Log Rule window Enter</li>
<ol>
<li>Topic : web-proxy</li>
<li>Prefix : Proxy</li>
<li>Action : webproxylogs (This is created in step 9 above)</li>
</ol>
<li>That all for MikroTik part</li>
</ol>

<li>Click OK</li>
<li>Now the WebProxy Log will open up</li>
