Figure 13: Sample Log Report on Log Reports page<br />

A given log report displays the following information for each output log entry:<br />

Username of the user.<br />

Start time for the VPN connection or Web session. Time is measured as local time on the <strong>Access</strong><br />

<strong>Server</strong> host, not GMT/UTC.<br />

The duration of the VPN connection (empty when the log entry is for a Web session).<br />

The service type: VPN is for VPN connections, WEB_CLIENT is for logins to the Connect Client,<br />

and WEB_ADMIN is for logins to the Admin Web UI. XML_API is for connections to the server<br />

using REST (i.e; <strong>Server</strong>-locked Profile, Third Party Plug-ins).<br />

The real IP address of the client.<br />

The VPN address set for the client, when the service is VPN for the log entry.<br />

Proto displays the Protocol used by the VPN Client to connect to the VPN <strong>Server</strong>.<br />

The Port section displays which port was used to connect to the VPN.<br />

The Bytes In and Bytes Out for the VPN connection, when the service is VPN.<br />

Any error message that occurred for the service access.<br />

You can also export the displayed log report in CSV (comma-separated value) format, for use with<br />

spreadsheet software such as Excel.<br />

Note: The logdba command line utility (in /usr/local/openvpn_as/scripts) has the same<br />

functionality as, and even more flexibility than, the Log Reports page in the Admin Web UI. Run<br />

logdba --help to see the detailed usage information for that CLI utility.<br />
