Hi Dan,
Assuming version 5.x of a JSS:
When you perform a log of a system it would update that information under the details for that computer. So go to the website, do a search for that machine then click the Details option for that computer. The IP is updated in the JSS for that system and is under the General Information section.
As far as what it logs as an action to the JSS to find in the Logs section...no clue. All I ever use log for is updating the IP address of the machine when it reboots so it can get managed properly in the JSS when I want to perform something remote on a system. On systems that are laptops that might bounce between AirPort and Wired without a reboot I have toyed with making that run like every couple of hours. Log doesn't serve too much purpose unless you need to ensure IP addresses are correct in the JSS for remote tasks, since the clients pull from the server and always know where to find it.
Hope that helps and answers your question
