The RUCKUS ICX device must record time stamps for audit records that can be mapped to Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) or Greenwich Mean Time (GMT).

Rule version RCKS-NDM-000680 · STIG v1 · 2025-05-28

Discussion

If time stamps are not consistently applied and there is no common time reference, it is difficult to perform forensic analysis.

Time stamps generated by the application include date and time. Time is commonly expressed in UTC, a modern continuation of GMT, or local time with an offset from UTC.

Check

Verify a time zone is configured on the device:

SSH@ICX# show clock 15:13:51.679 GMT+00 Mon Jan 15 2024

If the time does not reflect a time zone that can be mapped to GMT, this is a finding.

Fix

Configure a time zone as needed:

SSH@ICX(config) clock timezone [timezone]
