Description

Tested on 25.11

When I tried to assign more strict privileges for my test user account I found that there are two identical 'WebCfg - Status: System Logs: IPsec VPN' entries ('Assigned privileges menu.png')

When I chose the first one, I got correct access to IPsec logs 

<priv>page-status-systemlogs-ipsecvpn</priv>

but when I chose the second one I got access to PPP logs
<priv>page-status-systemlogs-ppp</priv>

so when both entries were chosen ('Effective Privileges for my user account.png') and I logged in with this test account I saw both IPsec and PPP ('System log page.png')

Another entry we might need to rename is 'WebCfg - Status: Logs: VPN' because this entry opens access to 'PPPoE/L2TP Server' logs:

<priv>page-diagnostics-logs-pptpvpn</priv>
