14.2.8 Managing network connection histories for clients

You can use a connection history file to manage client connection histories. By periodically reviewing client connection files, the administrator can retroactively manage the status of client network connections.

Because connection history files are in CSV format, you can easily compile statistical data by importing the file into a spreadsheet application. You can use this ability to audit client network connection logs.

The following table shows the folder where connection history files are created, and the file names given to the files.

Table 14-6 Folder and file name of connection history file

Folder name File name

JP1/CSC - Agent-installation-folder\radius\log cscracslog*.log^#

Legend:

installation-folder: The folder in which you installed JP1/CSC -Agent. The default installation folder for JP1/CSC - Agent is as follows (when the OS is installed under C:\):

For Windows Server 2003 (x64):

C:\Program Files(x86)\HITACHI\jp1netmcsca

For other OSs:

C:\Program Files\HITACHI\jp1netmcsca

#

The asterisk (*) indicates the connection history file number from 1 to 999. Number of connection history files can be specified in the IAS page of the JP1/CSC - Agent Setup dialog box.

For details about how to set the number of connection history files, see 13.2.2(4)(b) Operations that can be performed on the IAS page.

A connection history file contains connection history records. The format of a connection history file and the items in a connection history record are as follows:
Format of connection history file
  
Connection-history-name-record 
Connection-history-record 
Connection-history-record
