Discussion

Account management, as a whole, ensures access to the network device is being controlled in a secure manner by granting access to only authorized personnel. Auditing account removal actions will support account management procedures. When device management accounts are terminated, user or service accessibility may be affected. Auditing also ensures authorized active accounts remain enabled and available for use when required.

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
