Workbench records before and after TCP/IP setting changes made from a platform connections in an ipchanges.bog file on your PC. If necessary, you can review these changes.

The included decoded modTime value opens, for example, 13-Jan-2015 03:36 PM EST (vs "d20150113153640").

Underneath each folder are two objects:
- priorValue — TCP/IP settings that existed before this change.
- newValue — TCP/IP settings that exist after this change.
In the property sheet, expand a priorValue or newValue to see settings.
If you have a platform connection open (to any host), you can also review this same history of IP changes made from Workbench to remote platforms.
To view the same ipCHanges.bog folder and all child change entry folders in a property sheet view, at the bottom of the TCP/IP Configuration view, click the Audit button.
The folder opens.
