2.2.7.6 LogConnect

The purpose of the LogConnect request is to submit statistics on the client to the server. This request is optionally sent to the server when streaming starts for the first time, so the logging message does not include any information on the content being streamed. Instead, the logging message contains information on the client software and client operating system.

The LogConnect request is defined as the SET_PARAMETER request method (sent by the client to the server), as specified in [RFC2326] section 10.9, with the following additional constraints:

• The Content-Type header is present in the request and specifies the media type application/x-wms-Logconnectstats (section 2.2.6.3.6).

• The response to a LogConnect request is defined as a SET_PARAMETER response with the additional constraint that the response cannot have a message body.

The following example shows a LogConnect request:
