Cisco IOS XR platform command to track commands executed by users

[vigneshvicky1992]

Hi all,

Thanks in advance.

I am using both XE and XR IOS routers. when I executed below commands in XE, I am able to track commands executed by users through syslog.  But the same is not working in XR IOS router.  Please guide me with equivalent commands for XR.

#archive

#log config

#logging enable

#notify syslog

Or else you can suggest me some alternate options to keep a track of executed commands in router.

Regards,

Vignesh

hi,

it's easier to track/check if you're using a RADIUS or TACACS for command accouting.

you can use the combination of show configuration commit list and show configuration rollback changes <COMMIT ID> commands.

see example below:

#show configuration commit list

Thu Apr 29 05:10:07.665 UTC

SNo. Label/ID              User      Line                Client      Time Stamp

~~~~ ~~~~~~~~              ~~~~      ~~~~                ~~~~~~      ~~~~~~~~~~
