(in versions v1 r3 through v1 r2)
Title
The Arista Multilayer Switch must generate audit records when successful/unsuccessful attempts to access privileges occur. (Cat III impact)
Discussion
Without generating audit records that are specific to the security and mission needs of the organization, it would be difficult to establish, correlate, and investigate the events relating to an incident or identify those responsible for one. Audit records can be generated from various components within the information system (e.g., module or policy filter).
Check Content
Review the switch configuration and verify that logging is enabled. If logging is not enabled or is not enabled with sufficient detail to fulfill the specifications set forth in the VulDiscussion, this is a finding. To determine if logging is enabled, enter: switch#show logging The output must show logging as enabled, with a logging level of informational or debugging. In order to ensure all user commands are captured, the following statement must be in the running config: aaa accounting commands all default start-stop logging [group radius]
Fix Text
Enable logging on the switch with sufficient detail to fulfill the specifications set forth in the VulDiscussion. To configure logging to a remote syslog server at the informational level, enter: switch#config switch(config)#logging host [ip address] switch(config)#logging trap informational Then configure the following AAA: aaa accounting commands all default start-stop logging [group radius]
