Hi all,
please can any one help me to know about monitoring Remote access users using ASDM. As I have observed in ASDM, it is possible to monitor users currently logged in, but what I want to monitor is users who were logged in since the firewall started (for example, 30 days)..
Thank you,
Nagabhushan

you really need to use your logs for that.

Nagabhushan, I do agree with Steven , you would need to use/implement logging.
it is possible to monitor users currently logged in
Yes you can
in ASDM goto
Home/Configuration/Monitor/VPN/Session
but what I want to monitor is users who were logged in since the firewall started (for example, 30 days)..
Since you don't have any permanent logging setup to send logs to a syslog server for that amount of time you have already lost that information from 30 days ago, you need to implement syslog .
Go over this link for monitoring, you can also filter syslog messages based on log ID number or logging severity levels

Syslog is the way to go. Just wanted to add something that will help on make syslog useful.
I use it for everything at home and work. There are free and enterprise versions.
