Login and Logout Events Using SSH
System log messages are generated whenever a user successfully or unsuccessfully attempts SSH access. Logout events are also recorded. For example, a logout event for both remote and local sessions can be triggered due to the user issuing an exit or quit command or by the inactivity timer triggering the termination of a session. The following logs are the result of two failed authentication attempts, then a successful one, and finally a logout:
