Traditional auditing mechanism

Traditional auditing is configured by supplying a value for each the following stanza entries in the [aznapi-configuration] stanza of the WebSEAL configuration file.

[aznapi-configuration]
logaudit
auditcfg
logsize
logflush

Use of this method is comparable to the event logging method when directing output to a file. Note, however, the event logging method provides more control over buffer size and event queues. Also, traditional auditing does not support output to consoles, pipes, or remote servers.

For information about traditional auditing configuration settings for authentication, authorization, and HTTP events, see the Auditing topics in the IBM Knowledge Center.
