# View DNS log entries

DNS Log provides Administrators with reports and statistics on DNS requests made by all Users, Networks, and Hosts.

The DNS logs are presented in two views: The main **DNS Log** view provides aggregated statistics at the registered domain level, and the Resolved Subdomains view provides statistics and details for a selected registered domain name.

To view DNS log entries, follow the steps below:

1. Sign in to the CloudConnexa Administration Portal using your WPC's **Cloud ID** address (for example, `yourcompany.openvpn.com`).
2. Navigate to **API & Logs \> DNS Log**.
3. Set the date-range picker to the time period of interest: Last 24 hours, Last 7 days, Last 30 days, or a specific date interval. Click **Apply**.

   If there were any logs for the chosen time interval, the time chart will display the day/hour and the number of allowed, blocked, and failed DNS requests made as a stacked bar chart.

   If there were any logs for the chosen time interval, a table of log entries will be displayed below the chart.
4. Each row of the table shows the **Registered domain**, the number of requests that were **Allowed**, the number of requests that were **Blocked**, the number that **Failed**, and the timestamp of the first DNS request for that domain name.
5. Clicking on the corresponding column header allows you to sort the rows by the number of allowed, blocked, and failed requests.
6. The data can also be filtered to find specific domain names, resolved IP addresses, DNS query type, resolution status, as well as Host/Connector, Network/Connector, User/Device, and User Group. Refer to [Filter DNS log entries](https://openvpn.net/cloud-docs/owner/api---logs/api---logs---dns-log/filter-dns-log-entries.md) for the instructions on using the various filters.
7. Optionally, click on the hyperlinked domain name to drill down for the subdomain requests that comprise the counts. Refer [View DNS log entries for subdomains](https://openvpn.net/cloud-docs/owner/api---logs/api---logs---dns-log/view-dns-log-entries-for-subdomains.md)
