Router logs

I need to know if on a xr450 I can use the logs to see if there are stresses attacks etc. and if so can I see the ip of the user that is attacking me

  • It will show you known DoS attacks and Port Scans, in most cases though these are false alarms including the IP it originates from.

      So you wouldn’t be able to see there ip if they actually tried to boot me or do a stress

        It would probably show up yes - I haven't seen anyone who has been the victim of a legitimate attack so hard to say for certain.
