ℹ️ Check
Verify offloading of security syslog events with
cli% showsys -d
Find the output section "Remote Syslog Status".
If "Active" is not "1", this is a finding.
If "Security Server" is not defined, this is a finding.
If "Security Connection" is not "TLS", this is a finding.
✔️ Fix
Configure the remote syslog host:
cli% setsys RemoteSyslogSecurityHost <hostname> <address-spec> [:port]
The hostname, and address are both required. If both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses are supplied, the IPv6 address must be enclosed in []. The default port is 6514 utilizing TLS.
Import the ca certificate that will have signed the syslog server:
cli% importcert syslog-sec-server -ca stdin
Copy and paste the PEM format of the appropriate CA as instructed.
Configure the system to utilize remote syslog:
cli% setsys RemoteSyslog 1
