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-50375r769159_chk )
Use "cluster log-forwarding show -instance" to see if remote syslogging of ONTAP audit records is configured and which syslog facilities are being forwarded.

If ONTAP cannot be configured to generate log records for a locally developed list of auditable events, this is a finding.
Fix Text (F-50329r769160_fix)
Configure ONTAP to generate log records for a locally developed list of auditable events with "cluster log-forwarding create -destination -facility " where x is the number of the local facility.
