what is the best way to track login information of users in the company network?
I was asked by my manager to track login information for users in the network. How do I track it?
I find security logs under event viewer in domain controller. There are 2 domain controllers in our organization.

He wants to maintain for users login information for 6 months and if I try to save security logs it occupies more disk space. I know I can export the event logs and save it in an external drive. Are there any other ways?
And also the limit logon tool has is no longer available. The webpage doesn't exist

you can look through event logs on the domain controllers and turn on audit account logon events or you can use the limit logon tool..
