Real Time monitoring for VPN Concentrator...

[dondongamo]

Does the VPN Concentrator has its own Real Time activity log monitoring feature ?

[jackko]

Hi,

Has the issue been resolved? Perhaps give us an update and rate the post. Thanks.

The Live Event Log works fine but its used only to diagnose problems related to VPN connectivity issues

It doesn't exactly monitor/log the activities of the users who access the network using the VPN Concentrator.

[jackko]

you'll need a radius server for that purpose, in fact cisco has a product named secure acs, which does exactly what you want

..or you can do what I just do, and configure a syslog server to receive your concentrator logging. Then just monitor your syslog server.

[jackko]

just wondering what info will be available from the syslog server.

Depending on the level you log you can see every time someone trys to use the SNMP service!

I have my level a little lower... and all I see is users/LAN2LAN sessions making phase 1 and 2, as well as them disconnecting.

Will also point out problems with tunnels not coming up.
