You manage a SQL Server Reporting Services (SSRS) instance. The ReportingServicesService.exe.config file has been modified to enable logging. Some users report that they cannot access the server. You need to ascertain the IP addresses of the client computers that are accessing the server. What should you do?

Question

Accepted Answer

C. View the Report Server HTTP log. The Report Server HTTP log captures detailed HTTP-level information for each request processed by the SSRS service, including the originating client IP address, request method, URL, and HTTP status code. Because the ReportingServicesService.exe.config was modified to enable logging, the HTTP log will contain the client IP entries needed to identify the accessing computers.

Answer

A. View the Report Server service trace log. The Report Server service trace log records internal service operations, errors, and diagnostic events, but does not log client IP addresses from incoming HTTP connections.

Answer

B. View the ExecutionLog view in the Report Server database. The ExecutionLog view in the Report Server database captures report execution metadata such as report name, user name, and processing duration, but does not record client IP addresses.

Answer

D. View the Windows System event log. The Windows System event log records operating system and service lifecycle events at the OS level, not HTTP request details such as client IP addresses.
