How to audit logon events?

Audit logon events is a security audit policy setting that determines whether each event of a user logging on to or logging off from a device needs to be audited. You can define this policy setting to audit successes, and failures of logon events or not audit this event type at all. For domain account activity, account logon events are generated on domain controllers and for local account activity, account logon events are generated on local devices.

This security policy setting can be configured at Computer Configuration -> Windows Settings -> Security Settings -> Local Policies -> Audit Policy.
