## Chapter 10 User Authentication

WinRoute allows administrators to monitor connections (packet, connection, Web pages or FTP objects and command filtering) related to each user. The username in each filtering rule represents the IP address of the host(s) from which the user is connected (i.e. all hosts the user is currently connected from). This implies that a user group represents all IP addresses its members are currently connected from.

Besides access restrictions, user authentication can be used also for monitoring of their activities in the Kerio StaR interface (see chapter 21 Kerio StaR - statistics and reporting), in logs (see chapter 22 Logs), in the list of opened connections (see chapter 19.2 Network connections overview) and in the overview of hosts and users (see chapter 19.1 Active hosts and connected users). If there is no user connected from a certain host, only the IP address of the host will be displayed in the logs and statistics. In statistics, this host's traffic will be included in the group of not logged in users.
