I'd suggest to check the MyF5 article - K16197: Reviewing BIG-IP log files
https://my.f5.com/manage/s/article/K16197It covers the log reviewing basis of various interfaces and includes tmsh examples/videos for time filtering. Thanks.
You can view the logs using the below command in cli
tail /var/log/ltm ----- Shows the last few lines of the latest logs cat /var/log/ltm ----- Shows the complete log of the present day cat /var/log/ltm.* ----- Shows the logs for any of the previous days unto one week.
Alternatively, you can view the logs in GUI under SYSTEM --> Logs.
Let me know if this answer was helpful.
