Track Login Activity

Dell Networking OS enables you to track the login activity of users and view the successful and unsuccessful
login events.
When you log in using the console or VTY line, the system displays the last successful login details of the
current user and the number of unsuccessful login attempts since your last successful login to the system,
and whether the current user's permissions have changed since the last login. The system stores the number
of unsuccessful login attempts that have occurred in the last 30 days by default. You can change the default
value to any number of days from 1 to 30. By default, login activity tracking is disabled. You can enable it
using the login statistics enable command from the configuration mode.

Restrictions for Tracking Login Activity

These restrictions apply for tracking login activity:
Only the system and security administrators can configure login activity tracking and view the login
activity details of other users.
Login statistics is not applicable for login sessions that do not use user names for authentication. For
example, the system does not report login activity for a telnet session that prompts only a password.
