The Audit Log is the scheduler's diary. Every time Apptifi raises or lowers bandwidth on a service, or skips a change, it writes an entry here. It's the first place to look when you want to know what happened, and when. Each entry shows the time it happened, the type of action, the circuit it applied to, the bandwidth involved, and a short note with the details.

BW Up means the scheduler raised the bandwidth because an event started. BW Down means it brought the bandwidth back down when the event ended. Here you can see the nightly backup on the Dallas circuit going up and down each weekday. Blackout Skip means a change was due, but a blackout window was active, so the scheduler left the bandwidth alone.

The notes tell you which window blocked it. For bandwidth changes, the notes include the previous bandwidth, so you can see exactly what changed from and to. The newest entries are at the top, fifty to a page. Use Previous and Next to move through older history.

Click the refresh button to load the latest entries, or tick Auto-refresh to reload the log every sixty seconds while you watch. That's the Audit Log: a complete record of what the scheduler did and why. Next, we'll look at Circuit Groups.
