Abstract

Methods, computer systems, and computer-storage medium are provided for monitoring, analyzing, and providing reports regarding direct access technologies, for example DirectAccess, VPN, or VPN-like technologies. User activity associated with DirectAccess servers can be filtered by server location to allow administrators to determine which users, and how many users, utilized or are utilizing each DirectAccess server, which can be identified by geographic locations. In some cases, this information can be used to address technical support issues or to determine which resources of an entity may be under- or over-utilized.
