JUEX-NM-000580 - The Juniper EX switch must be configured to generate audit records showing starting and ending time for administrator access to the system.

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 network device to generate audit records showing starting and ending time for administrator access to the system.

set system syslog file <file name> any info
set system syslog host <external syslog address> any info
set system syslog time-format year
