Logs
Abdal 4iProto Server records authentication failures, blocked IPs, and live operational events.
Key Artifacts
| Artifact | Purpose |
|---|---|
invalid_logins.log | Failed authentication attempts |
blocked_ips.json | Persistently blocked source IPs |
| Console output | Real-time connection and traffic logs |
Failed Login Logging
invalid_logins.log helps you investigate:
- Repeated credential guessing
- Source IP patterns
- Targeted usernames
Blocked IP Persistence
When brute-force thresholds are exceeded, source IPs can be stored in blocked_ips.json. See Blocked IPs.
Operational Practice
- Review failed-login volume during incidents
- Correlate traffic files with active session complaints
- Keep admin shell access tightly controlled
