System Monitoring and Logging
System monitoring and logging features allow administrators to view both real-time and historical data about the performance of the appliance and its access services, as well as user activity.
The AMC home page displays a graphical summary of the current number of active users, network bandwidth, disk space usage, and CPU usage. More detailed views of this graphical data are available in hourly, daily, weekly, and monthly increments.
If a user is experiencing trouble—for example, he is logged in but cannot establish a connection or is denied access to resources—you can view his session details to diagnose the problem. You can quickly see why a user’s device is classified into a particular zone, and what policy rules are applied, editing them as needed.
If you have an SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) tool, you can use it to monitor the appliance as an SNMP agent. The appliance provides a variety of management data in MIB (Management Information Base) format. If you have a syslog server, you can configure it in AMC to capture all log events.
The AMC log viewer provides a detailed view of appliance, user access, and other activities contained in a series
of log files. The viewer allows you to customize the display of log message data using sorting, searching, and
filtering options. If you need to perform additional analysis of the log message data, or display the data
differently than how it appears in the log viewer, you can export data to comma-separated values (.csv
) files
for use by another application such as Microsoft Excel.
