CISC-ND-001250
(in versions v2 r9 through v1 r0.1)
Title
The Cisco switch must be configured to generate log records when administrator privileges are deleted. (Cat II 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 network device (e.g., module or policy filter).
Check Content
Review the Cisco switch configuration to verify that it generates log records when administrator privileges are deleted as shown in the example below: archive log config logging enable If the Cisco switch is not configured to generate log records when administrator privileges are deleted, this is a finding.
Fix Text
Configure the Cisco switch to generate log records when administrator privileges are deleted as shown in the example below: SW4(config)#archive SW4(config-archive)#log config SW4(config-archive-log-cfg)#logging enable SW4(config-archive-log-cfg)#end
