<div><p>Provides information about IP traffic and connections.</p>
|
|
<div class="section">VPN uses a separate journal to log information about the IP traffic
|
|
and connections called the QVPN journal. The QVPN is stored in the QUSRSYS
|
|
library. The journal code is M and the journal type is TS. You will rarely
|
|
use journal entries on a daily basis. Instead, you might find them useful
|
|
for troubleshooting and verifying that your system, keys, and connections
|
|
are functioning in the manner that you specified. For example, journal entries
|
|
help you understand what happens to your data packets. They also keep you
|
|
informed of your current VPN status.</div>

<div><div class="section"><p>Use the virtual private networking interface in <span class="keyword">iSeries™ Navigator</span> to
|
|
activate the VPN journal. There is no function that allows logging for all
|
|
VPN connections. Therefore, you must enable the logging function for each
|
|
individual dynamic-key group or manual connection.</p>
|
|
<p>The following steps
|
|
describe how to enable the journal function for a particular dynamic-key group
|
|
or manual connection:</p>
|
|
</div>
|
|
<ol><li class="stepexpand"><span>In <span class="keyword">iSeries Navigator</span>,
|
|
expand your <span class="menucascade"><span class="uicontrol">server</span> > <span class="uicontrol">Network</span> > <span class="uicontrol">IP Policies</span> > <span class="uicontrol">Virtual Private Networking</span> > <span class="uicontrol"> Secure Connections</span></span>.</span></li>
|
|
<li class="stepexpand"><span>For dyanamic-key groups, expand <span class="uicontrol">By Group</span> and
|
|
then right-click the dynamic key group for which you want to enable journaling
|
|
and select <span class="uicontrol">Properties.</span></span></li>
|
|
<li class="stepexpand"><span>For manual connections, expand <span class="uicontrol">All Connections</span> and
|
|
then right-click the manual connection for which you want to enable journaling.</span></li>
|
|
<li class="stepexpand"><span>On the <span class="uicontrol">General</span> page, select the level of
|
|
journaling you require. You have the choice between four options. These are:</span> <dl><dt class="dlterm"><span class="uicontrol">None</span></dt>
|
|
<dd> No journaling occurs for this connection group.</dd>
|
|
<dt class="dlterm"><span class="uicontrol">All</span></dt>
|
|
<dd>Journaling occurs for all connection activities, such as starting or stopping
|
|
a connection, or key refreshes, as well as IP traffic information.</dd>
|
|
<dt class="dlterm">Connection Activity</dt>
|
|
<dd>Journaling occurs for such connection activity as starting or stopping
|
|
a connection.</dd>
|
|
<dt class="dlterm">IP traffic</dt>
|
|
<dd>Journaling occurs for all of the VPN traffic that is associated with this
|
|
connection. A log entry is made every time a filter rule is invoked. The system
|
|
records IP traffic information in the journal QIPFILTER, which is located
|
|
in the QUSRSYS library.</dd>

|
|
<div><p>To view the entry-specific details in the VPN journal, you can
|
|
display the entries on the screen or you can use the output file.</p>
|
|
<div class="section"><div class="p">By copying the journal entries to the output file, you can easily
|
|
view the entries by using query utilities such as Query/400 or SQL. You can
|
|
also write your own HLL programs to process the entries in the output files.
|
|
The following is an example of the Display Journal (DSPJRN) command:<pre>DSPJRN JRN(QVPN) JRNCDE((M)) ENTTYP((TS)) OUTPUT(*OUTFILE) OUTFILFMT(*TYPE4)
|
|
OUTFILE(mylib/myfile) ENTDTALEN(*VARLEN *CALC)</pre>
|
|
</div>
|
|
<p>Use the
|
|
following steps to copy the VPN journal entries to the output file:</p>
|
|
</div>
|
|
<ol><li class="stepexpand"><span>Create a copy of the system-supplied output file QSYS/QATOVSOF
|
|
into a user library. You can do this by using the Create Duplicate Object
|
|
(CRTDUPOBJ) command. The following is an example of the CRTDUPOBJ command:</span> <pre>CRTDUPOBJ OBJ(QATOVSOF) FROMLIB(QSYS) OBJTYPE(*FILE) TOLIB(mylib)
|
|
NEWOBJ(myfile)</pre>
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li class="stepexpand"><span>Use the Display Journal (DSPJRN) command to copy the entries from
|
|
the QUSRSYS/QVPN journal to the output file created in the previous step.
|
|
If you attempt to copy the DSPJRN into an output file that does not exist,
|
|
the system creates a file for you, but this file does not contain the correct
|
|
field descriptions.</span></li>
