# Configure Access Logs

## Introduction

The S3 Suite provides 2 access logs using the Log4j2 package. These contain details about REST API calls to the Servers including query parameters, headers, elapsed time, UTC time, and other details from the request and response payloads. Access logs are disabled by default. Enable access logs to trace activity in your data centers.

| **Component** | **Log File Directory** | **Log File** | **Configuration File** |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Authentication Server | <TOMCAT_HOME>/logs | nnl-access.log | <TOMCAT_HOME>/conf/nnl/log4j2-nnl.xml |
| API Server | <TOMCAT_HOME>/logs | nnlgateway-access.log | <TOMCAT_HOME>/webapps/nnlgateway/WEB-INF/classes/log4j2.xml |

Enable access logging during Server installation by assigning the [two access log properties](/dpoa/docs/s3suite94-step-3-set-up-the-installation-properties-file#b-assign-log-properties) in the <NNL_HOME>/install/nnl-install.properties file.
