7.5. Viewing the Audit Log
The Audit Log provides a means to track password use and access attempts. Item 11 in the
General Parameters menu (/G) determines which type of access attempts will be recorded. The
Audit Log can be configured to record all connection attempts, only successful attempts, or
only unsuccessful attempts.
Note that the Audit Log can only be viewed via the SRM command mode. To display the Audit
Log, access the command mode as described in Section 5.1, then type /C and press [Enter].
Events are listed in reverse chronological order, with the most recent attempts appearing at the
top of the list.
The Audit Log will list only the most recent 100 connection attempts. After 100 events are
recorded, the log will wrap-around; and older events will be deleted as each new event is
added. If you wish to clear the audit log and delete all entries, access the SRM's Command
Mode, then type /U and press [Enter], the Utilities Menu will appear. From the Utilities
Menu, type 2 (Delete Audit Log), press [Enter] and follow the instructions in the submenu.
Note that deleted log entries cannot be recovered.
To view access activity for each individual password, type /D and press [Enter] to display the
Password Directory as described in Section 6.4.
