VPN Console is a software tool that interprets log files from Microsoft IAS server, Microsoft DHCP server, and Syslog. It includes converters and capturing utilities for event logs and syslog messages.
Some of the key features of VPN Console are as follows:
1) Analyze logs from multiple Microsoft IAS Servers.
2) Keep an eye on connection sessions, whether for VPN or dialup, with start/stop times and duration tracked.
3) Generate reports for the top ten login sessions based on total data transfer.
4) Monitor log events from Microsoft DHCP Servers.
5) Filter various DHCP events.
6) Export tables and reports into various formats -- including TXT, HTML, and CSV -- in preparation for MS Excel or database import.
7) Provide brief system information via SNMP.
8) Filter events by date.
9) Employ an event log to syslog converter daemon for Windows NT/2000/XP.
10) Capture syslog messages with ease.
11) Read and filter the syslog files created with the syslog capture utility.
Overall, I found VPN Console to be a powerful and incredibly useful tool that can streamline workflows for system administrators. Highly recommended!
