Sessions Overview

The Sessions Overview provides administrators and authorized users with the ability to view and track the status of SRA sessions. This view helps ensure that all session activities are visible, auditable, and managed effectively over a specified timeframe (default: last 30 days).

Session Overview grid

The Session Overview page displays detailed information for each session. The following key details are provided:

• Client Interface: Indicates how the session was initiated. Options include: Web Portal - CLI, Web Portal - Web, CLI and Desktop Application)
• User: The username of the individual who initiated the session.
• Gateway Name: The name of the gateway through which the session is managed.
• Resource Type: The type of resource accessed during the session. Examples include: SSH, RDP, Databases, Kubernetes (K8s) and more.
• Secret Name: The identifier for the secret used during the session.
• Status: The current state of the session (e.g., active, closed, or terminated).
• Duration: The length of time the session has been active.

Real-Time Updates

• Auto-Refresh: The sessions list automatically updates every 20 seconds to ensure the displayed information is current.
• Manual Refresh: Users have the option to manually refresh the list by clicking the Refresh button.

Filtering Options

Users can filter the session list based on the following criteria to quickly locate specific sessions:

• Client Interface
• Resource Type

Audit Logging

Every session update is captured in the Audit Log. This ensures that any changes (such as status updates or modifications) are recorded for compliance and troubleshooting purposes.

Permissions

• Self-Session Visibility: Any user who initiates a session is permitted to view their own session details (there is no need to specify any permission for that).
• Extended Visibility for SRA Application Servers: If a user has permissions to access one or more SRA application servers, they can view all sessions managed by those servers.
• Admin Access: Administrators have full visibility of all sessions within the selected timeframe.
