User Audit Trails

to audit_o.txt, in case a SuperUser wants to access the old file via SecureFX in
SFTP mode. A new file is then opened named audit.txt and new data is written to
that file.

Deleting Audit Trails

A user can delete the contents of the system log by using the CAMMI
(Maintenance/Diags, View System Log, Delete command) or the
corresponding CLI command. However, this only deletes the events that can
be viewed by their access level.

Archiving Audit Trails

A SuperUser can archive the audit.txt and audit_o.txt files using an SSH2
FTP client such as SecureFX to copy the files to another computer or storage
device. After logging in with SecureFX, navigate to the cam directory and
locate the audit.txt and audit_o.txt files.

System Log

The system log file sys.log is a circular file that contains a recent history of
system users, events, and alarms. Old records are overwritten by new records.
The log file identifies the currently active CPU and any user currently logged
into the Broadmore. All users can use the CAMMI interface to view those
system events permitted by their access role (see “Maintenance and
Troubleshooting” on page

8-1

). Only a SuperUser can copy or delete the

sys.log file. After logging in using an SSH2 FTP client such as SecureFX,
navigate to the cam directory and locate the sys.log file. The system log can be
deleted and archived in much the same way as the audit log files.

For example, the SuperUser can delete the sys.log file by using the del shell
command, as in the following example.

cd cam

del sys.log

Rather than using FTP, a SuperUser can also display or delete the system log
through the Command Line Interface.
