Using Syslog

1

Here are some examples of log messages for CLI access.

The first message (the one on the bottom) indicates that user “dg” logged in to the CLI User EXEC
level on October 15 at 5:38 PM and 3 seconds (Oct 15 17:38:03). The same user logged in to the
Privileged EXEC level four seconds later.

The user remained in the Privileged EXEC mode until 5:59 PM and 22 seconds. (The user could
have used the CONFIG modes as well. Once you access the Privileged EXEC level, no further
authentication is required to access the CONFIG levels.) At 6:01 PM and 11 seconds, the user
ended the CLI session.
