By default, all system events are logged to the local SYSLOG and stored on the Infoblox appliance. To ensure log data is preserved in the event of system failure, an external log server must be configured. Verify that external logging is operational and messages from the Audit log are also forwarded to the remote log system. 1. Navigate to Grid >> Grid Manager >> Grid Properties, or System >> System Manager >> System Properties if using a stand-alone configuration. 2. Select the "Monitoring" tab. 3. Validate that "Log to External Syslog Servers" is enabled and an External Syslog Server must be configured. 4. Validate "Copy Audit Log Message to Syslog" is enabled. 5. When complete, click "Cancel" to exit the "Properties" screen. If both "Log to External Syslog Servers" and "Copy Audit Log Message to Syslog" are not enabled, this is a finding. |
