Web request logs

The listener for Web requests logs one of the following entries for each Web request:

• Initiated Connection
• Denied Connection
• Closed Connection

These log entries are not associated with the Web publishing rule. Therefore, these entries are logged even if you turn off logging for Web publishing rules.
