You may be requested by EXFO technical support to provide the EXFO Exchange logs and files from your FTB platform tester to assist in the investigation of any issues you have observed while using the application.

Procedure to follow

On the FTB platform there are two locations where the EXFO Exchange files and logs are stored:

  • The FlowAutomation Folder which is found here:

  • The EXFO Exchange Logs which are found here:

             C:Users\xxxxxxxx\AppData\Local\EXFO
