1. Choose Administration >> System >> Logging >> Logging Categories.
2. Configure the "AAA Audit", "Failed Attempts", and "Posture and Client Provisioning Audit" categories to have the Targets field to have LogCollector selected at a minimum. If the environment has an additional SYSLOG server, it can be selected here as well.
