Check Contents

Review the Cisco router configuration to verify that it is compliant with this requirement.

Step 1: If persistent logging is enabled as shown in the example below, go to step 2. Otherwise, this requirement is not applicable.

logging persistent url disk0:/logfile size 134217728 filesize 16384

Step 2: Verify that the router is not configured with a privilege level other than "15" to allow access to the file system as shown in the example below.

file privilege 10

Note: The default privilege level required for access to the file system is "15"; hence, the command file privilege "15" will not be shown in the configuration.

If the router is configured with a privilege level other than "15" to allow access to the file system, this is a finding.
