The Failed Login report table displays the time and the
name or IP address of the machine that attempted to au-
thenticate to the SonicWALL.
VPN Events
The VPN Events report lists all VPN events, including VPN
SA negotiation attempts, VPN key exchanges, VPN heart-
beat messages and VPN connection errors. The VPN Events
report helps illustrate the cause of VPN negotiation fail-
ures. It also identifies unknown or suspicious VPN activity.
The VPN Events table displays the time, the source and des-
tination of the event, and the type of event that occurred.
System Events
The System Events report lists events and errors that oc-
curred to the SonicWALL Internet security appliance during
the report period. System events include successful down-
loads of the Content Filter List, SonicWALL activations, DHCP
and PPPoE informational messages, and High Availability
backup firewall activation. System errors listed include prob-
lems downloading the Content Filter List, difficulties
obtaining a DHCP Client or PPPoE Client Lease, deactiva-
tion of the SonicWALL because the log was full, and the
number of simultaneous connections exceeding the limit.
The System Events table displays the time, the source name
or IP address, and the type of system event. Since many
system events are created by the SonicWALL, the SonicWALL
will be the most common source of events. Most events are
results of normal SonicWALL operation, and do not indi-
cate network or SonicWALL problems.

The Bandwidth Summary Report displays a bar graph of all
IP traffic through the SonicWALL in MBytes transferred.
The table displays the hour of the day, the number of events
