You can continuously display new lines as the log grows and appends new data.
Viewing a continuous log
You view continuous logs under Reports > Diagnostics: User Logs.
Click Launch Continuous Log in the upper-right corner of the page.
If the continuous log does not appear after clicking Launch Continuous Log, a pair of appliances might be optimizing HTTP traffic between the user's web browser and the primary or auxiliary interface of the appliance for which the user is viewing the log, and they are buffering the HTTP response.
To display the continuous log, you can switch to HTTPS because the appliances will not optimize HTTPS traffic. Alternatively, you can configure the other appliances to pass-through traffic on the primary or auxiliary interfaces for port 80.
