Audit Events Details dialog box

The Details dialog box displays the information specific to the audit event that you have selected on the Audit Events tab.

See Audit Events tab.

The dialog box displays the following details:

Description

Description of the audit event that you have selected.

User

User who triggered the event.

Date

Date and time when the audit event was recorded.

Category

Audit category, for example Certificate (CERT), Login (LOGIN), Security Configuration (SEC_CONFIG), or Token (TOKEN).

Action

Action that the user has taken, for example CREATE (created a certificate) or MODIFY (modified a security configuration)

Reason

Reason for the audit event.

Note:

If you see audit records in the CONNECTION category, make sure to review the record details. For certain records in this category, the Date field that is displayed on the dialog box indicates when the audit record was posted to the primary server. It does not necessarily indicate when an individual event occurred. This type of audit record (for example, a certificate verification failure (CVF) record) represents a group of events that have occurred over a time period. The audit record details provide the Beginning Event Time and Ending Event Time of the time period as well as the Event Count (the total number of events that occurred in that time period).

Following are the audit trail details for the events that are displayed on the dialog box:

Attribute

Attribute of the associated audit event. For example: If a host ID-to host name mapping is modified, in the audit trail details, the following attributes are displayed: isApproved, isAddedManually, ApprovalState

Old Value

Old value of the attribute that is associated with the audit event.

New Value

New value of the attribute.
