Newbie question:

I see all failed login attempts in the event log.

How do I enable Fortigate 6.4.2 so that it logs all successful login attempts?

Thanks,

Hank

You should see successful logins in the event log as well. I'm not sure where you're looking exactly, but I can see them by going to Log & Report -> Events -> System Events and looking for "Admin login successful" in the Log Description field.

That is exactly where I am looking but all I see is unsuccessful login attempts.

Running 6.2.4

Even Add Filter doesn't show an option to see successful logins (see attachment).

Under Log & Report -> Log Settings, look at the bottom in the Log Settings section and see if Event Logging is set to "All" or some other value. I don't know what it needs to be, but mine is "All".
