Capture of ASDM sessions on ASAs?

I have TACACS enabled on a number of ASAs, and make use of the accounting data as triggers for various events. Alas, this facility seems much less complete than on switches and routers, as one item I'm interested in trapping is the 'end' of an ASDM session. While 'starts' are captured, there seems to be nothing to signal a 'stop' (i.e. 'disc-cause' or similar.)
I'm trying to find an alternate method of capturing this (recognizing that an RFF would be the proper approach), though even that seems a challenge: I haven't yet come across any SNMP pollable MIB to identify what sessions exist, nor have I seen that any traps are available.
The CLI 'show asdm sessions' produces the target list, while using this method feels even more clunky than having to poll a MIB/look for a trap/log, etc.
Can anyone corroborate that this is the only alternative, or have I overlooked something in the MIBs?

As of ASDM 7.1(4), it's still not working.  ASDM 7.1(5) has given me nothing but grief from a Mac perspective, so I haven't moved beyond 7.1(4) except to verify that 7.1(5) is borked with current Java versions (there's been reports of some people having success with 7.1(5) if they downgrade their Java, but I've neither the inclination nor the time to start down that rabbit hole).  I should note that the "success" I'm referring to is not multiple instances of ASDM, but rather basic functionality; ASDM 7.1(5) and current Java versions don't mix.  At all.
tl;dr - if you want multiple instances of ASDM on a Mac, you'll need Parallels and Windows.  :/

  • How to set ASDM image on ASA remain factory-default

    Hi, Cisco Support Community
    I want to configure an ASA to facotry-default using the following commands.
    # configure factory-default
    # wr mem
    But when I use above commands, ASDM is to be unset !
    How can I set ASDM remain factory-default ? I don't want to include " #asdm image disk0:/~~.bin" command in configuration because it is not factory-default configuration.
    I don't know why I can do that on ASDM.
    First , Upgrade ASA&ASDM on ASDM.
    Second Operae factory-default and reboot on ASDM.
    Then ASA is to be factory-default and set ASDM image.
    I want to do that with CLI.
    Thanks in advance. 

    Thank you for reply.
    Of course I put ASDM image on ASA.
    You know we can launch ASDM on truly factory-default ASA.
    I mean how I can reset ASA to that condition using CLI.
    a problem is below.
    1. put ASDM image on asa flash
    2. (configure)#asdm image disk0:~~
    3.#show asdm image
    >> the image is set
    4 (config)#configure factory-default
    5.#show asdm image
    >> unset
    How can I truly reset to factory-default ?

    What's the latest version of ASDM I  can install on a 5515 ASA?
    I'm having Java compatibility issues with other software when I run the client on our workstation.
    Thanks.
    Juan.

    Hello Juan,
     The latest release available is Release 7.3.1.101,  if you have issues with java I would recommend you add the URL to the Java Security exemption list by doing the following:
    - Open the Java Control Panel
    - Click on the Security Tab
    - Click on Edit Site List..
    - Then Click on Add
    - Add the --> https://XXXXXX/admin
    XXXXX--> the IP address that you are using to open the ASDM on the browser
    Try doing this on Mozilla Firefox.
    Let me know how it works out!,

  • ACL not showing in ASDM 7.1 (ASA 9.0)

    Hi all,
    I've configured a couple of ACL rules via CLI in my ASA.
    When i checked in the ASDM, it only shows the basic rules that was configured by default and did not show the rules that i've created.
    Anyone else facing the same problem?
    Thank you

    Hi,
    The above output that you mentioned
    access-group Outside_access_in in interface outside
    access-group DMZ_access_in in interface DMZ
    Means that
    You have an ACL named "Outside_access_in" that is attached to the interface "outside"This ACL controls connections coming towards ("in") the interface. In other words from the networks behind that interface
    You have an ACL named "DMZ_access_in" that is attached to the interface "DMZ"This ACL controls connections coming towards ("in") the interface. In other words from the networks behind that interface
    So the above named ACLs should show in the ASDM in the Configuration -> Firewall -> Access Rules  -section since that section describes the interface Access Rules.
    So all the rules that you have added to those ACLs should show here.
    If you simply created some new ACL (with another ACL name) and didnt attach it to any interface on the ASA, then it will NOT show on this window.

  • A single TIMEOUT drops Remote-Desktop Session on ASA

    Hello Guys,
    Just recently we replaced our HQ Cisco-Pix with Cisco-ASA 5510.  where we have many branches connecting to our HQ through site-to-site vpn.
    Since putting this new ASA5510 at HQ , while we are getting a  Remote-Desktop session  into our branches clients, and at the time when even a single TIMEOUT occurs on the vpn-link  so the remote-desktop session   gets completly lost.  then we have to re-connect the session.
    This issue happens as i said above  when a single  timeout  occurs on the vpn link.   please tell me what is the issue with the ASA5510. because with pix we didnt have this issue,  remote-desktops were never geting lost / reset  with single  timeout

    Imran,
    Thank you for posting this question.  Now, we need a little bit more clarification into what you call TIMEOUT, The ASA wont drop a flow unless there is no data passing through within an Hour (If it is TCP). Does the tunnel goes down completely and the SA has to be rebuild?
    What are the logs that you are seeing? What is the ASA saying about that terminated connection? As you rightly pointed, there should not be mayor differences between the devices (Assuming they were running version 8.2 or below).

  • Unable to open SMTP session through ASA 5512-X

    Hi All,
    Just doing some basic testing before we replace our ancient PIX 515E with a new 5512. I have a mini lab set up following the diagram below, although I am unable to telnet through to the mail server's netcat listener on port 25 TCP. I can ping all the way outbound from 192.168.101.1 to 10.0.0.2, and the 10.0.0.2 machine shows it is translated properly to 200.225.117.1.
    NAT and access rules are as follows:
    object network mail host 192.168.101.1 description Mail relayaccess-list inbound extended permit ip any host 200.225.117.1ASA# sh routeCodes: C - connected, S - static, I - IGRP, R - RIP, M - mobile, B - BGP

    Any ideas? I am also unable to ping the 200.225.117.1 machine with access list permitting IP.
    EDIT: Somehow the new global access rule is involved. When adding a permit any any in there I can get to the mail server no problem. When I remove it but leave in my permit ip any any on the outside interface, I am denied?!?!

    You can actually refer to the object in the access-list instead of the actual ip address.
    There is also a lot of more flexible NAT that you can configure, ie: both source and destination IP and ports being translation, etc.
    Here is the major changes which take place from version 8.3:
    http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/security/asa/asa83/release/notes/asarn83.html
    1) NAT
    2) Access-list
    3) Licensing if you have failover pair, doesn't need to be the same anymore.

  • I am trying to screen capture a simulation session in captivate 6 and then edit it in premiere pro cc 2014 when I import the video into premiere, it is blurry

    Caveat - I am relatively new to adobe captivate and premiere, so hopefully this is a simple setting issue that I have not been able to figure out.  When I do a video capture in captivate 6 the output mp4 is very clear.  If I play it in windows media player it is crisp and clear.  If I import that same mp4 into Premiere Pro CC 2014, it is very blurry.  My simulation has gauges and dials that need to be clear and I need to "mix" audio, narration, and system sounds into this video.  Any help would be extremely appreciated!

    OK - back to my caveat.  When I select preferences in Premiere and look at the playback setting, I get options for Preroll, Postroll, Step forward/back many, mercury transmit, Audio device, Adobe DV and disable video output when in backgroud (all of which I am not smart enough to comprehend). 
    I apologize for my ignorance. So as I continued to read your question, I, of course googled "how to set playback resolution in premiere pro" and I learned how to do that....  They were set to 1/2.  I adjusted to full and it seems to be clear now....  I think you just helped me, help myself.  Thank you!  Did I get it right?  Is there any more you can recommend when it comes to taking a screen capture video and making it into an awesome demo?
    Thank you, Thank you, Thank you,

  • Capture ssh sessions in the background

    Hi together,
    i would like to capture all ssh-session (hidden in the background) on a solaris 10 server.
    I hade some tries with /usr/bin/script -a <somewhere> in the .bash_profile but this is not what i need. e.g. "exit" exits the script and not the session.
    do you have some clever idea how to solve the issue?
    i can�t find any helpful tool.
    chears, claudius

    No, i have a System where some users get the possibility to access the server by ssh. To have a control, what the user did - and do have a verification when he did something wrong - i would like to have a possibility to see what he did within the session (e.g. editing a configfile) I had some tries with "script" and other little OS-tools but, i was�nt able to find a perfect sollution.
    Perfect meens - it�works and it is not vissible for the user.

  • Is the capture of a terminal session supported?

    Hello,
    I'm going to evaluate this product.
    My major doubt is: where is the best place to install
    Captivate? It is possible to capture an RDP session (Microsoft
    Remote Desktop)? and if yes what happens to the sound?
    The question arise because I use Virtual Machines to build my
    labs and I'd like to install Captivate on my real computer and not
    in a virtual lab.
    If the RDP capturing is not working well the idea couldbe
    install a demo of captivate in the VMs and do the post-processing
    on the pc with the licensed/activated copy. [but seems a bit too
    unpratctical]
    Kind regards,
    Marco.

    Hello, Davide_ita.
    Also tried to use RDSM to "Remote Control" user's sessions, but in this thread
    Remote Control
    with Remote Desktop Services Manager - error Access is denied (Windows Server 2012 R2)
    I get the recommendation to use RDP or Remote Assistance.
    The quote of
    TP []:
    Hi,
    You cannot remote control a session on a 2012 R2 RDSH server using Remote Desktop Services Manager.  You need to use the RDP 8.1 mstsc.exe or the RDS gui in Server Manager on 2012 R2.  The command you would use with the RDP 8.1 client would be
    this:
    mstsc /shadow:<sessionid> /control

  • Asa 8 and asdm 6

    upgraded to 8 and asdm 6 had
    http server 444 found that I could no longer add subnet access
    http x.x.x.x mask outside without first clearing the entire config, ading http server without a port adding the access then putting the new port back on. In addition, log just show denies when attempting to access asdm from outside though I have put in http 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 outside just to test. Any ideas?

    It appears that with asdm 6 and asa 8 it can distinquish between asdm access and web access. I have found it works fine w/o changing the port but doesn't if the port is changed.
