1.10.7 Ensure 'logging with timestamps' is enabled

Information

Rationale:

Enabling timestamps, to mark the generation time of log messages, reduces the complexity of correlating events and tracing network attacks across multiple devices by providing a holistic view of events thus enabling faster troubleshooting of issues and analysis of incidents.

Solution

Run the following command to enable the logging timestamp

HOSTNAME(CONFIG)#LOGGING TIMESTAMP
