Generate RADIUS Logs for Accounting and Debugging

RADIUS logs track debugging and accounting information generated by the Policy Server. Use the RADIUS log file to track the following:

• State of the Policy Server
• Connection attempts and session creations
• Information about each Policy Server action

Logs are turned on and off using the Policy Server Management Console from the Debug tab.

The Policy Server time stamps the log file with the date and time it was created. For example, "log.txt" can be specified as the name of the file. When the Policy Server is restarted and the Policy Server creates the log file, the date and time are added to the name, for example:

log.txt.08Dec1999_13_30_57

If you are appending logging information to the same file, the date on the file reflects the date and time it was created. The timestamp is only updated if the Policy Server is restarted.
