20.4 Config Log
The Config log stores a complete communication history between Administration Con-
sole and the WinRoute Firewall Engine — the log allows you to find out what administra-
tion actions were performed by which user, and when.
The Config window contains three log types:
1. Information about user logins/logouts to/from the WinRoute’s administration
Example:
[18/Apr/2003 10:25:02] james - session opened
for host 192.168.32.100
[18/Apr/2003 10:32:56] james - session closed
for host 192.168.32.100
• [18/Apr/2003 10:25:02] — date and time when the record was written to the
log
• jsmith — the login name of the user logged in the WinRoute administration
• session opened for host 192.168.32.100 — information about the begin-
ning of the communication and the IP address of the computer from which the
user connected
• session closed for host 192.168.32.100 — information about the end of
the communication with the particular computer (user logout or Administration
Console closed)
2. Configuration database changes
Changes performed in the Administration Console. A simplified form of the SQL
language is used when communicating with the database.
Example:
[18/Apr/2003 10:27:46] jsmith - insert StaticRoutes
set Enabled=’1’, Description=’VPN’,
Net=’192.168.76.0’, Mask=’255.255.255.0’,
Gateway=’192.168.1.16’, Interface=’LAN’, Metric=’1’
• [18/Apr/2003 10:27:46] — date and time when the record was written
• jsmith — the login name of the user logged in the WinRoute administration
