Clear logs

To manage the overall authentication history of all the accounts logged in the system:

  1. Click the Authentication History icon.
  2. The Clear Logs control allows you to remove the authentication logs from the database using one of the two criteria:
    • Clear logs starting from <date> To <date>: Clear the logs recorded in a certain period of time. Use the available text boxes or the calendar buttons to specify the interval's starting and end date. The accepted date format is yyyy-mm-dd.
    • Clear logs older than <number> <period>: Clear the logs older than the specified <number> of days/weeks/months/years. Use the drop-down list to select the <period>.

View failed authentication attempts

All accounts that failed to authenticate in the system are listed in a table.

The Resource column refers to the authentication resource which can be: Interface/Auth/Login, SystemAPI/Auth/Login, or Interface/Auth/Impersonate. The IP Address column refers to the IP address the user tried to log in from. If the user logged in from the VoipNow4Plesk module, the IP of the respective Plesk server will be displayed here.

Search for failed authentication attempts

You can filter the list of failed authentication attempts using the IP of the user:

  1. Enter the IP of the session in the text box located above the table.
  2. Click the Search button. The system remembers the search criteria when a new search is performed and even after the user logs out.

Remove a session

You cannot delete your own sessions, but only those of the other users connected to the server.

The logs are added to the login history list based on the settings you have made in the Log Messages on Level drop-down list from the Unified CommunicationsMonitoringSystem Authentication → User Login Preferences page.

For more information, please read the System Login Preferences section.
