CISC-ND-000210 - The Cisco device must be configured to audit all administrator activity.

Information

This requirement supports nonrepudiation of actions taken by an administrator and is required to maintain the integrity of the configuration management process. All configuration changes to the network device are logged, and administrators authenticate with two-factor authentication before gaining administrative access. Together, these processes will ensure the administrators can be held accountable for the configuration changes they implement.

To meet this requirement, the network device must log administrator access and activity.

Solution

Configure the router to log administrator activity as shown in the example below.

R1(config)#logging userinfo
R1(config)#archive
R1(config-archive)#log config
R1(config-archive-log-cfg)#logging enable
R1(config-archive-log-cfg)#logging size 1000
R1(config-archive-log-cfg)#notify syslog contenttype plaintext
R1(config-archive-log-cfg)#hidekeys
R1(config-archive-log-cfg)#end
