APM - Tracking SSL users access

Hi everyone!

 

I've been configuring a new APM Virtual Edition in the last days, and there's a thing I don't see anywhere, and don't know if it is even possible.

 

I have a local database where I create and enable/disable the users who can log in the SSL remote connection, and I'd like to know which one of them is connected at a specific moment, when were the last time the user logged in...

 

Is there any way to find these kind of logs or statistics?

 

Thanks in advance, Luis.

    Hi,

     

    you can see all session information in Web UI / reports / all sessions or create custom reports with filters to search all previous sessions of a user.

    I have just seen that some interesting info may be collected from /var/log/apm log file:

     

    apm notice apd[7626]: 01490010:5: 0f82acf7: Username 'lpastor'

     

    apm notice apd[7626]: 01490008:5: 0f82acf7: Connectivity resource x assigned

     

    apm notice apd[7626]: 01490128:5: 0f82acf7: Webtop x assigned

     

    apm notice apd[7626]: 01490005:5: 0f82acf7: Following rule 'fallback' from item 'Advanced Resource Assign' to ending 'Allow'

     

    apm notice apd[7626]: 01490102:5: 0f82acf7: Access policy result: Full

     

    apm notice tmm[11537]: 01490501:5: 0f82acf7: Session deleted due to user logout request. apm notice tmm[11537]: 01490521:5: 0f82acf7: Session statistics - bytes in: 9145, bytes out: 3705

     

    Anyway, if you know a better way, please let me know.
