Vulnerability discussion

If time stamps are not consistently applied and there is no common time reference, it is difficult to perform forensic analysis.Time stamps generated by the application include date and time. Time is commonly expressed in Coordinated Universal Time (UTC), a modern continuation of Greenwich Mean Time (GMT), or local time with an offset from UTC.

Check content

Verify that RiOS is configured select UTC. Navigate to the device Management Console Navigate to Configure >> System Settings >> Date and Time Verify that "UTC" is selected If no NTP Servers are visible after the command "show ntp all" or on "Requested Servers", this is a finding.

Fix text

Configure RiOS enable UTC. Navigate to the device Management Console Navigate to Configure >> System Settings >> Date and Time Select "UTC" for the Time Zone Click "Apply" Navigate to the top of the web page and click "Save" to save these settings permanently

Pro Tips

Lavender hyperlinks in small type off to the right (of CSS class id, if you view the page source) point to globally unique URIs for each document and item. Copy the link location and paste anywhere you need to talk unambiguously about these things.

You can obtain data about documents and items in other formats. Simply provide an HTTP header Accept: text/turtle or Accept: application/rdf+xml.
