How to modify audit settings on OS 6.10.2

[r32nj]

I recently enabled the AUDIT function on my ReadyNAS.  It is generating a huge # of entries (I turned everything on).  I don't see any option on the AUDIT screen to turn it off or modify the original parameters.

How do I make changes to the AUDIT setup?

There are some settings for Audit in System->settings->services->audit that you can change.

You have to go to System>Logs and choose the Audit label on the left side. Auditing should be enabled first

Once enabled, the settings options should appear and you should be able to modify.

You will have to go to the Settings Tab and disable Audit once turned off, you should not receive any alerts

If you want to modify the settings, going to Logs then audit will provide you the settings to modify what should be reported.

This is what I needed - thank you!  Might want to include this in the manual within the section about the audit function.
