The Logs and Events Menu allows viewing of all system and critical logs stored on your SKVM/SKM. Up to 100 log events per log are stored timestamped, with the oldest being overwritten as new events are logged. These logs are helpful for auditing, to see how your SKVM/SKM is functioning, or to view access attempts and system changes.
Option 1 - show OTP log
The OTP (one-time programming) log stores records of the SKVM/SKM system’s critical events. The information contained in this log is not deleted during a factory restore. The following events can be found in this log:
- Self-test failures
- Tampering events
- Peripheral device rejections
- Peripheral device changes through the DPP (CAC) port
- Admin password changes
- Factory restores
Option 2 - show critical ram log
The RAM log stores non-critical system operation events. The information in this log is not deleted during a factory restore. The following events can be found in this log:
- SKVM power up
- Peripheral device acceptance
- Configuration changes
- Admin logins
- Addition/Removal of admin accounts
- Password changes
- Login failures
Sample output:
19 from 64, time/date [01h 11min, 25/07/23] [ 0 ] admin1234 login failed
Option 3 - show non-critical ram log
The non-critical RAM log stores a rolling list of actions taken on the SKVM.
Sample output:
25 from 128, time/date [16h 59min, 21/09/23] peripheral kb dev accepted
Option 8 - back
Takes you back one level on the Menu.
Option 9 - exit terminal
Choosing this will back your SKVM/SKM out of the terminal mode, allowing you to use your SKVM as normal. However, this does not log you out of the administrator account you are currently logged into. To fully log out of the administrator account, disconnect power from the SKVM for 10 seconds to reboot it.
