The NSX-T Manager must generate log records for the info level to capture the DoD-required auditable events.

| Description | ||||
| Auditing and logging are key components of any security architecture. Logging the actions of specific events provides a means to investigate an attack; to recognize resource utilization or capacity thresholds; or to identify an improperly configured network device. If auditing is not comprehensive, it will not be useful for intrusion monitoring, security investigations, and forensic analysis. | ||||

Check Text (C-251788r879887_chk)
From an NSX-T Manager shell, run the following command(s):
> get service async_replicator | find Logging
> get service http | find Logging
> get service manager | find Logging
> get service policy | find Logging
Expected result:
Logging level: info
If the output does not match the expected result, this is a finding.
Fix Text (F-55202r810366_fix)
From an NSX-T Manager shell, run the following command(s):
> set service async_replicator logging-level info
> set service http logging-level info
> set service manager logging-level info
> set service policy logging-level info
