Local accounting overview

Local accounting is always active. It cannot be turned off.

This accounting information is captured and made available locally (using show accounting log) and, if desired, for sending to remote AAA servers:
  • Exec Accounting: user login/logout events.

  • Command accounting: commands executed by users.

  • System accounting: remote accounting On/Off events.

  • CLI show commands.

  • Interactions on the non-CLI interfaces: REST and WebUI.

The following is not captured or made available as accounting information:
  • CLI commands that reboot the switch.

  • Interactions in the bash shell.

NOTE:

See also the show accounting log command.
