Hello Everyone,
Apologize if this is simple question but I've tried google but still not really understood.
I would like to understand this if anyone here can enlighten me. I've managed to send routers log messages to our dedicated Syslog Server. I got a question from auditor that "why is the audit is disabled?" (As I attached below with red color)
Can anyone explain to me what is the purpose of "audit disabled" Logging to 192.168.5.1 (udp port 514, audit disabled,
Appreciate your help guys!! my god bless!

that red on not going to stop your logging, can you post your logging config ?

- This might be related to user (management) activity being logged or not , can be activated with (in config mode):
logging userinfo
login on-failure log
login on-success log
archive
log config
logging enable
logging size 1000
notify syslog contenttype plaintext
hidekeys
logging size 1000
notify syslog contenttype plaintext
hidekeys
Check if that makes a difference when added in the config and or with the show logging command.
