Logging VPN connections

haroon.shaikh · ‎05-08-2007

Greetings All,

I have a customer who wishes to log all VPN user activity on their ASA5510 so he can look back and see who was using a VPN connection on a particular day.

I can see in the ASDM how you can see real time, who is on but do you know what logging command I need to use to log this activity for reference so that it can be viewed at a later date?

Thanks

You can use the Cisco Secure Access Control Server (ACS) for this. This is RADIUS/TACACS+ software that you can install on various versions of Windows Server 200x.

You can perform Authentication, Authorization and most import for you; Accounting. The server keeps track of who logged in, when he/she did that, how much traffic passed by, how long he/she stayed connected, etc etc.

More information on the Cisco Secure ACS can be found here: http://www.cisco.com/go/acs

Please rate if the post helps!
