Summary

Added documentation for disabling BGP logging on VPN tunnels and updated terminology from 'tunnel logging' to 'tunnel activity logging'

Security assessment

The change adds documentation about disabling BGP logging capabilities, which is a security monitoring feature. While logging is a security-relevant capability, the change itself documents feature usage rather than addressing a specific vulnerability.
