Logs and diagnostics
These pages are for the network and support teams when Connection check is not enough. In the menu they are under the Logs group.
Which one do I need?
Section titled “Which one do I need?”| Question | Page |
|---|---|
| When and how did this subscriber connect, or fail to? | Connection attempts |
| Why was this username’s sign-in rejected? | User auth log |
| Are routers sending broken or unknown packets? | RADIUS diagnostics |
| Did the disconnect command reach the router? | Network operations |
| Did part of the system report an error? | System events |
Connection attempts
Section titled “Connection attempts”Follows each connection attempt from start to finish:
Request → Auth → Acct start → Online → Interim → ClosedSearch for a username and choose a time window (15 minutes, 1 hour, 24 hours, 7 days). The Outcome column sums it up:
| Outcome | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Session online / Session active | All good. |
| Authentication rejected | See the Reason code; the same reasons as in Connection check. |
| Waiting for accounting | Sign-in was accepted and is waiting for the router’s start report. |
| Accounting-Start missing | The router did not send accounting — see MikroTik setup. |
| Session ended | The subscriber disconnected. |
| Connection match is ambiguous | More than one session may match these records; check carefully. |
User auth log
Section titled “User auth log”Every sign-in attempt and Farava’s decision (Accepted or Rejected), newest first. For each attempt: time, username, router, source IP, and Reason code. Filter by Result to see only rejected sign-ins.
RADIUS diagnostics
Section titled “RADIUS diagnostics”Warnings and errors from the RADIUS server, for example a packet from an address that does not belong to any registered router (usually a wrong source IP or NAT). The overall health of this area is shown at the top.
Network operations
Section titled “Network operations”Every command Farava sends to a router — Disconnect or Apply rate — is recorded here. You reach it from disconnect messages and service pages.
| Command status | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Pending / In progress | Being sent |
| Succeeded | The router confirmed it |
| Retry scheduled | It did not arrive last time; it is resent automatically |
| Failed | Did not arrive after several tries |
| Superseded | A newer command replaced it |
For a failed command, first fix the router’s disconnect settings and firewall, then select Retry delivery. A router’s confirmation alone does not prove the subscriber was disconnected; check under Sessions that the session actually Closed.
System events
Section titled “System events”Errors and warnings from Farava’s background parts, by severity (Info, Warning, Error, Critical). If you see a Critical event or errors keep repeating, contact the Farava team and send the event’s Code and Time.
