Abstract
A system for generating virtual private network (VPN) sessions from VPN server log messages uses and displays a VPN sessions table in which each row contains attributes of a corresponding VPN session. Processing of a log message causes a session to be generated when there is no ACTIVE session in the table for a username extracted from a log message. A time extracted from the log message is stored as the session start time and as a temporary end time associated with the session. If a gap between a temporary end time and a time extracted from a log message for the associated ACTIVE session is less than a threshold amount, the temporary end time is set to the extracted time. If the gap is equal to or exceeds the threshold, the status of the session is changed from ACTIVE to CLOSED, and a new ACTIVE session is generated.
