Each NSX-T Edge Node configured to host a Tier-1 Gateway Firewall must be configured to use the TLS or LI-TLS protocols to configure and secure traffic log records.

Description
It is critical that when the network element is at risk of failing to process traffic logs as required, it takes action to mitigate the failure, secure collected log data, and restrict access to authorized personnel. Methods of protection may include encryption or logical separation. In accordance with DOD policy, the traffic log must be sent to a central audit server. This does not apply to traffic logs generated on behalf of the device itself (management). Some devices store traffic logs separately from the system logs. Satisfies: SRG-NET-000089-FW-000019, SRG-NET-000098-FW-000021

Who does this work

7 NICE work roles and 7 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-251763r919237_chk)

From an NSX-T Edge Node shell hosting the Tier-1 Gateway, run the following command(s): > get logging-servers If any configured logging-servers are not configured with protocol of "li-tls" or "tls" and level of "info", this is a finding. If no logging-servers are configured, this is a finding. Note: This check must be run from each NSX-T Edge Node hosting the Tier-1 Gateway, as they are configured individually.

Fix Text (F-55154r810183_fix)

(Optional) From an NSX-T Edge Gateway shell, run the following command(s) to clear any existing incorrect logging-servers: > clear logging-servers From an NSX-T Edge Node shell, run the following command(s) to configure a tls syslog server: > set logging-server <server-ip or server-name> proto tls level info serverca ca.pem clientca ca.pem certificate cert.pem key key.pem From an NSX-T Edge Node shell, run the following command(s) to configure a li-tls syslog server: > set logging-server <server-ip or server-name> proto li-tls level info serverca root-ca.crt Note: If using the protocols TLS or LI-TLS to configure a secure connection to a log server, the server and client certificates must be stored in /var/vmware/nsx/file-store/ on each NSX-T Edge Gateway appliance.
