Introduction

Security settings

Security Audit Logging Mode

Define where to record or transmit the audit logs. The audit logs are sent to a syslog server.
This setting has no effect if the Logging Mode setting is set to Off.
When using the External or ExternalSecure mode you must enter the address of the audit
server in the Security Audit Server Address setting.
Requires user role: AUDIT
Default value: Internal
Value space: External/ExternalSecure/Internal/Off
External: The system sends the audit logs to an external syslog server. The syslog server
must support UDP.
ExternalSecure: The video system sends encrypted audit logs to an external syslog
server that is verified by a certificate in the Audit CA list. The Audit CA list file must be
uploaded to the video system using the web interface. The common_name parameter
of a certificate in the CA list must match the IP address or DNS name of the syslog
server, and the secure TCP server must be set up to listen for secure (TLS) TCP Syslog
messages.
Internal: The system records the audit logs to internal logs, and rotates logs when they
are full.
Off: No audit logging is performed.

Security Audit OnError Action

Define what happens when the connection to the syslog server is lost. This setting is only
relevant when Security Audit Logging Mode is set to ExternalSecure.
Requires user role: AUDIT
Default value: Ignore
Value space: Halt/Ignore
Halt: If a halt condition is detected the system codec is rebooted and only the auditor is
allowed to operate the unit until the halt condition has passed. When the halt condition
has passed the audit logs are re-spooled to the syslog server. Halt conditions are: A
network breach (no physical link), no syslog server running (or incorrect address or port
to the syslog server), TLS authentication failed (if in use), local backup (re-spooling) log
full.
Ignore: The system will continue its normal operation, and rotate internal logs when full.
When the connection is restored it will again send its audit logs to the syslog server.

Security Audit Server Address

Set the IP address or DNS name of the syslog server that the audit logs are sent to.
This setting is only relevant when Security Audit Logging Mode is set to External or
ExternalSecure.
Requires user role: AUDIT
Default value: ""
Value space: String (0..255)
A valid IPv4 address, IPv6 address, or DNS name.
