Audit-trail to syslog

  • 1.  Audit-trail to syslog

    Posted Jan 31, 2012 02:56 PM

    Hello, I’m attempting to have audit-trail entries sent to my syslog server. I generate new audit-trail events just fine but do not see them go to my syslog server.  I’m on AOS 3.4.5.0.

     

    This thread: http://community.arubanetworks.com/t5/Command-of-the-Day/COTD-audit-trail-all/m-p/971

     

    And KB article 1097 both say it is possible to do this so I’m hoping an extra set of eyes will see the issue that I do not.

     

    My configuration looks like:

     

    logging level notifications system subcat configuration

    logging xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx system

     

                                                                                                                  

    (MasterAruba6000) #show logging level verbose

     

    LOGGING LEVELS

    --------------

    Facility  Level          Sub Category   Process

    --------  -----          ------------   -------

    network   warnings       N/A            N/A

    security  warnings       N/A            N/A

    system    warnings       N/A            N/A

    system    notifications  configuration  N/A

    user      warnings       N/A            N/A

    wireless  warnings       N/A            N/A

     

     

    Thanks, I’d appreciate some help if you have done this.

    I have logging working to syslog with the config below:

     

    (host) (config) #show logging level verbose

    LOGGING LEVELS
    --------------
    Facility Level Sub Category Process
    -------- ----- ------------ -------
    network warnings N/A N/A
    security warnings N/A N/A
    security warnings ids N/A
    security warnings ids-ap N/A
    system warnings N/A N/A
    user warnings N/A N/A
    wireless warnings N/A N/A

     

    You can only get the audit trail sent by sending the whole log to a syslog server like this:

     

    logging 192.168.1.244

     

    Keeping everything on warnings amounts to having the most quiet syslog.

     

    If you want to log even show commands you can execute "audit-trail all"

    Thanks! I am getting audit-trail messages with the configuration you show. I was trying to only send the audit-trail messages to the server by trimming it down to "system > configuration" but I guess messages do not work like that?

    You are correct. It only works that way.
