SW1(config)#ip access-list extended INGRESS_FILTER
…
…
…
SW1(config-ext-nacl)#deny ip any any log-input

Review the switch configuration to verify that events are logged containing information to establish the source of the events as shown in the example below:

ip access-list extended INGRESS_FILTER
permit tcp any any established
permit tcp host x.11.1.1 eq bgp host x.11.1.2
permit tcp host x.11.1.1 host x.11.1.2 eq bgp
permit tcp any host x.11.1.5 eq www
permit icmp host x.11.1.1 host x.11.1.2 echo
permit icmp any any echo-reply
…
…
…
deny ip any any log-input

Note: When the log-input parameter is configured on deny statements, the log record will contain the layer 2 address of the forwarding device for any packet being dropped.

If the switch is not configured to produce audit records containing information to establish the source of the events, this is a finding.
