Audit log configuration
When managing SANs you may want to audit certain classes of events to ensure that you can view
and generate an audit log for what is happening on a switch, particularly for security-related event
changes. These events include login failures, zone configuration changes, firmware downloads,
and other configuration changes—in other words—critical changes that have a serious effect on the
operation and security of the switch.

and other configuration changes—in other words—critical changes that have a serious effect on the
operation and security of the switch.
Important information related to event classes is also tracked and made available. For example,
you can track changes from an external source by the user name, IP address, or type of
management interface used to access the switch.

management interface used to access the switch.
Auditable events are generated by the switch and streamed to an external host through a
configured system message log daemon (syslog). You specify a filter on the output to select the
event classes that are sent through the system message log. The filtered events are streamed
chronologically and sent to the system message log on an external host in the specified audit
message format. This ensures that they can be easily distinguished from other system message log
events that occur in the network. Then, at some regular interval of your choosing, you can review
the audit events to look for unexpected changes.

Before you configure audit event logging, familiarize yourself with the following audit event log
behaviors and limitations:

By default, all event classes are configured for audit; to create an audit event log for specific
events, you must explicitly set a filter with the class operand and then enable it.

•
The audit log depends on the system message log facility and IP network to send messages
from the switch to a remote host. Because the audit event log configuration has no control over
these facilities, audit events can be lost if the system message log and IP network facilities fail.

If too many events are generated by the switch, the system message log becomes a bottleneck
and audit events are dropped by the Fabric OS.

For High Availability, the audit event logs exist independently on both active and standby CPs.
The configuration changes that occur on the active CP are propagated to the standby CP and
take effect.
