modifications or re-installation of the operating system. This means that the Access Control Service can assign health states to the proper client even if the IP address changes or a user performs a logout.

The status tab displays only the last health status of a client. To get an overview of historical information, e.g. in order to display different states for a client but cumulate states if they were identical, change the view to the Access tab.

Double-click an entry to open a new window where the Access Control Service logs corresponding to the appropriate entry are displayed. Optionally, the Firewall Access Cache may be displayed by pressing "Show Access Cache". Au- tomatically an appropriate filter for the client's IP address is set. The cache selection includes forwarding and local-in and local-out traffic. This gives the administrators an easy way of trouble-shooting for their clients.

Alternatively, the full log entries are available via the Log Viewer module. The full Access Cache can be viewed in the Firewall GUI > Access Cache.

Both, log entries and firewall access cache, are only available if the the Access Control Service was active on the Barracuda NG Firewall box. Barracuda NG Firewalls do not sync their log files or the firewall access cache to the HA partner.

4.1.5Status VPN Tab

This tab provides a subset of the information available in the Status tab. Only Barracuda NG Network Access Client Client connections established through VPN are enlisted. Manually applying filters in the Status tab results provides the same information.

4.1.6Access Tab

The Access tab provides all information available for the Access Control Service. This includes health information (also displayed in the Status tab) and also data generated by the remediation module and the authenticator module.

4.1.7Quarantine Tab

The Quarantine tab provides all information regarding clients which health state is unhealthy and which are therefore in quarantine.
