This section presents a list of sessions that match the search criteria
you entered in the top section. By default it shows both session Start and
session Stop records. Session Start records can be identified by the fact
that they do not have a Session Time.
The User Name column shows the exact user name they logged in with.
The Time stamp column shows the date and time that the session started
or stopped (in your time zone's local time).
The Session ID is an identifying number that the NAS uses to identify a
session. It allocates a new Session ID each time a new session starts. The
Session ID will be the same for the Start and Stop of the same session.
Session IDs are only unique until the NAS reboots. When a NAS reboots, it
starts reusing Session IDs.
Session Time is the length of time the session lasted (in seconds). For
session Start records, this will be blank.
Framed IP Address this is the IP address that the user was allocated
for the duration of this session.
NAS Identifier is the IP address of the NAS the user was connecting
to.
NAS Port is the number of the NAS's interface, modem or port that the
user was connecting to.
