seconds, 1 minute, 5 minutes, or 10 minutes.

Configuring user logging

To generate user logs, you must configure session logging (see

Configuring session logging

).

User logs record information about flows based on 5-tuple information, including the source IP address,

destination IP address, source port, destination port, and protocol number. With user logs,

administrators can track and record accesses to the network.
You can output user logs by using one of the following methods:

Output logs to the information center in the format of system information. The information center
determines the output destination.

Output logs to a log host in UDP packets in binary format.

Two versions are available with user logging: version 1.0 and version 3.0, which are slightly different in

packet format. For more information about packet formats, see

Table 12

and

Table 13

.
