  • You can keep a record of all pages requested, or even track mouse movement, but there's no possibility to take a video capture of client activity.

     

    On the other hand, if you already track the mouse movement, and page clicks, what additional value would you get from video anyway? To log all pages requested, you can use BigIP remote syslog (HSL); to track mouse movement, application-injected javascript code would work the best.

     

    Also note that extensive activity tracking is not what F5 BigIP is best suited for. If you need good malware to watch over your customers, try Google Analytics.

      This is not an intended feature of BigIP as it includes javascript injection. I recommend you hand over this task to your application team. Ref: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/7790725/javascript-track-mouse-position

       

      If you really want to, you can use iRules to accomplish the same on BigIP but I don't recommend taking that route. This level of javascript logic implemented in BigIP could easily frustrate and tilt the network admins who have to provide day-to-day operational support.
