The Juniper EX switch must be configured to send log data to at least two central log servers for the purpose of forwarding alerts to the administrators and the information system security officer (ISSO).

Description
The aggregation of log data kept on a syslog server can be used to detect attacks and trigger an alert to the appropriate security personnel. Information stored in one location is vulnerable to accidental or incidental deletion or alteration.

Who does this work

16 NICE work roles and 10 EC-Council certifications.

This is an inference across published mappings, not a single claim by anyone. This check maps to a control, which maps to a Cybersecurity Framework outcome, which NIST assigns to the work roles below. EC-Council separately maps its certifications to those same roles.

A certification prepares someone for a role. It is not evidence that a holder is qualified, and neither NIST nor EC-Council has stated that any certification here addresses this check.

Work-role assignments published by NIST (NICE Framework Components 2.2.0 and the CSF 2.0 OLIR crosswalk). Certification mappings published by EC-Council.

Check Text (C-253944r1137890_chk)

1. Verify that the network device is configured to send log data to a redundant central log servers. 2. Verify the external syslog server is configured. The lowest severity level, "any", is debug and will generate a significant number of messages. [edit system syslog] host <external syslog address> { any info; structured-format; << Only if structured formatting is required, otherwise events are recorded in standard format. } time-format year; If the network device is not configured to send log data to redundant log servers, this is a finding.

Fix Text (F-57347r1018703_fix)

Add the following stanzas to the configuration. set system syslog host <external syslog host1 IPv4 or IPv6 address> any info set system syslog host <external syslog host2 IPv4 or IPv6 address> any info Note: The time-format command supports including the year and/or the time in milliseconds. The default format does not include the year and time is recorded in seconds.
