Kind of a big deal

1. Regarding the retention Aaron Willette wrote an excellent blog post:

I don't know how up-to-date it is though.

 

Perhaps it's time @CameronMoody turns this into an official doc 😇.

 

2. Seems to me like only succesfull logins are logged in the event log. You can find them in Network-Wide > Event Log. Syslog provides more detail:

Succesful connect and disconnect in green.

 

Connection try with a wrong username in red.

 

Connection try with a wrong preshared key doesn't seem to get logged at all.

 

3. Login tries to the local status page (not sure that that is what you mean) aren't logged.
