CISC-ND-001270 - The Cisco router must be configured to generate log records for privileged activities.
Information
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).
Solution
Configure the Cisco router to generate log records for privileged activities as shown in the example below.R4(config)#archive
R4(config-archive)#log config
R4(config-archive-log-cfg)#logging enable
R4(config-archive-log-cfg)#logging size 1000
R4(config-archive-log-cfg)#notify syslog contenttype plaintext
R4(config-archive-log-cfg)#hidekeys
R4(config-archive-log-cfg)#end
