specifications

IAS Log Viewer is a software tool that enables individuals to read and interpret log files from Windows 2000/2003 IAS (Internet Authentication Service), as well as save them to the hard drive in other formats and schedule tasks.

The installation process is pretty typical, yet you should know a version is also available for download which does not requires you to go through the setup process.

If you select the latter option, you should know that the Windows registry is not going to be affected in any way and you can take it anywhere with you, by simply placing the program files to a removable storage unit (e.g. USB flash drive).

The interface is quite intuitive and the utility comes with an example file, so that you can easily figure out how to work with it. At import, it supports LOG and CSV files, while at export you can use extensions such as DBF, XML and CSV.

In the main window, it is possible to access multiple types of data with the help of a few tabs. For example, it is possible to list the records from the uploaded LOG file, along with details such as date, time and username, as well as connects along with information including start and stop date and time, duration, user IP, input octets and connect request.

In addition to that, you can find a connect for a selected record with just a click of the button, use a search function, filter items and configure alerts.

Multiple types of records can be generated at any point or on a schedule, according to user usage, rejects, activity, NAS ports usage, connects and calling station ID details, and saved to a custom location in an HTML, XML or CSV format.

IAS Log Viewer does not require many system resources in order to work properly, while the response time is quite good. The interface can be used with great ease as it is intuitive and our tests did not reveal any errors, bugs or crashes.

All things considered, it is safe to say that IAS Log Viewer is an efficient and useful piece of software which comes packed with a pretty impressive number of options.
