How do I check what logon attempts have
been made?
The Logon
Audit report can be used to review log on/log off activity for a
specified username. It provides the following information:
|
Username |
the characters
entered into the Username box on the log on screen |
|
Date |
the date of the
attempt |
|
Time |
the time of the
attempt |
|
Valid |
were the log on
credentials (Username/Password) valid (yes/no) |
|
Portal |
the
portal that the user tried to log on to
|
|
Logon |
did the user
attempt to log on? |
|
Logoff |
did the user log
off? |
|
Attempt |
the number of
attempts to log on with the username. A zero indicates
that this event was a log-off. |
|
Fail Reason |
the reason why the
log on attempt failed |
|
Net User |
not used |
|
Station |
not used |
To run the report:
-
Select Logon Audit Report from the menu.
-
By default, you will be shown the audit
report for the username that you are currently using. To see
the results for a different username, type it into the
Username box.
Note:
the username you
enter doesn't need to be a username that is valid within
Optimum. You can run the report for any username that you
believe has been used to try and log on to the system.
-
Enter a Start Date for the report, or select it from
the drop-down calendar. The report will start on this day
and go backwards through the audit details.
-
Enter a No. of Days that you want the report to
cover.
-
Click Go.
The report will return all results for the given
username in the period.
The report can be generated for any username for which a logon
attempt has been made. It does not have to be a valid username
within Optimum.
