Event Logging

The following sections describe how to view and manage the VPN Client event log.

The event log can help diagnose problems with an IPSec connection between the VPN Client and a peer VPN device. The log collects event messages from all processes that contribute to the client-peer connection.

From the Log tab on the VPN Client window you can:

•Enable logging

•Clear the logging display

•View the event log in an external window

•Set or change the logging levels

Note To search the log, choose Search Log from the Log menu. Matched instances are highlighted on the Log tab.

Enable Logging

Note If you enable logging during normal use of the VPN Client, it might affect the performance of the application. We recommend that you only enable logging when troubleshooting.

To enable logging, click Enable at the top of the VPN Client window. Alternately, you can choose Enable from the Log menu. The event logging window displays (Figure 7-4).
