Failed to setup Velocity Engine ... in Cisco Security Manager

Anyone having problems trying to validate syntax in a FlexConfig in Cisco Security Manager?
CSM version 4.4.0 SP2
Java 1.6.0_14-b08
I have heard that there are issues with earlier versions of Java.
I have also heard that this problem was fixed in CSM
Any ideas anyone?
Adrian

I believe this is where you need to run CSM Configuration Manager as Administrator.  I had that issue, and I think the note about this is in the Install Guide.

  • CSM 4.1 - Flexconfig (Syntax errors detected - Failed to setup Velocity Engine to validate syntax)

    Hi,
    I am trying to build a simple flexconfig to remove some aaa statements. When I try to create any
    basic flexconfig, I get the following error msg:
    Syntax errors detected
    Failed to setup Velocity Engine to validate syntax
    Please correct errors.
    The flexconfig consisted of the following cmd:
    no aaa group server tacacs+ server123
    I also tried cloning an existing example "IOS_enable_SSL", rename and recieved the same error.
    What is the Velocity Engine and how can I verify that this component is working correctly?
    Regards

    Just discovered that I once saved this bug here: https://www.cisco.com/cisco/psn/bssprt/bss?searchType=bugIdSearch&bugId=CSCtz91443
    They write since around today that it's finally fixed. Maybe this actually also fixes our issue here. Sadly there isn't yet a version given in which it's fixed.

  • Cisco Security Manager logging

    Hello Experts,
    Can anyone help me, how can i configure CSM 4.0 to capture its logs.
    I want to read logs of Cisco Security Manager itself, so how can i do that & in which location it captures it log file.

    There are multiple server logs (47 of them on my CSM 4.4 setup) all stored on the server itself and accessible from Windows Explorer.
    You will need to RDP to the server and look at the log directory under the path where you installed CSM.

  • Install Cisco Security Manager 4.7 on Hyper-V

    Hello,
    Our customer want to install Cisco Security Manager on a Virtual Machine virtualized with Hyper-V. Documentation only mentions install the software on a Virtual Machine on Vmware systems.
    Can we install without problems, and the installation will be supported on TAC if we need open a support case?
    Best Regards,
    David

    While it should work (since CSM is basically an application running on a Windows server), it is not a system that meets the requirements of the Installation Guide.
    So... if the TAC found an issue related to that setup when you needed their help, they'd be within their rights to say your installation is unsupported.

  • Cisco Security Manager IOPS for Storage (VM Deployent)

    Hi,
    I've been asked by a client about the Cisco Security Manager requirement to have 1TB of storage for events and another for archiving.
    They wish to know the IOPS requirement for this storage. Please could anyone assist in this ?
    Many thanks,
    Mark                 

    Hi,
    I'm not sure that I can really help you, but I can verify that on my CSM 4.5 server which is running normally, that service has a starup type of automatic and is in the "Started" state.
    You may want to check your system and application event logs to see if there are any messages that could explain why it stopped.

  • Unable to Install Cisco Security Manager

    Hi,
    I facing issue when trying to install Cisco Security Manager in my Windows Server 2008.
    I had attach the print screen of my server version and error message.
    The error message had mention that it was due to unsupport OS or terminal service.
    But, i check and it show that my Window Server was the recommend version and no terminal service been enable.

    Hi Vincent,
    Please understand that Window Server 2008 R2 Enterprise Server is not same as Windows Server 2008 Enterprise Server. I had faced the same problem earlier. The R2 version is supported only CSM 4.1 onwards.

  • Cisco Security Manager Local RBAC Authentication Radius assign user role

    Is it possible to use Cisco Security Manager with local RBAC, authenticate the user to Radius and retrieve it's role from Radius. Getting the authentication to work isn't the problem, but is it also possible to return the role the user has (i.e. Super Admin) via Radius, without having to create all the users one-by-one in the local CSM database with the correct role.
    Can i use a certain Cisco-AV-Pair attribute to return the user role via Radius?

    I just got asked to look at the same situation by one of our security people.
    We have exactly the same problem but it reports a username of "*****" and we are running CSM 4.7 (upgraded last week)

  • Cisco Security Manager (CSM) License Problem

    Hi All,
    We have CSM V3.2 with Professional license edition and support 50 devices. It's installed properly in the Cisco Security Manager client as appeared in the attachement but the problem is in the server administration- license management which doesn't include any records for license (see attachment).
    I tried to upload the .lic file by clicking the Update button in server administration but an error message appeared stated that the license file is corrupted although it's installed properly in CSM client!!!
    Could you please advise what's the problem and what should I do?
    Thanks in Advance!

    Sorry but Cisco seems to have removed that product bulletin from cisco.com.
    Your reseller can use Cisco Commerce Workspace (CCW) to order the correct part number for your CSM installation. There is a unique number for each licensing level and/or upgrade.
    For instance, for a 10-device standard license, the support would be part number CON-SAS-CSMST10K.
    For the 100-device Pro license, the support would be CON-SAS-CSMPR4K9.
    The reseller needs to adjust the support term (12-60 months) to suit when ordering.

  • Import Network host objects to Cisco Security Manager

    Is it possible to import complete lists of Network Hosts objects to Cisco Security Manager?
    Exporting the hosts already defined in the ASAs is easy but how to import them in CSM??
    Thanks

    No hostnames discovered go the Policy Object Manager (nor to the Access rules), only group-names (there's a bug in ASAs related to single host names too). The way CSM handles single hosts is previously creating them, so when we later discover devices, the single hosts names set in the discovered device are not considered, only their IP addresses; then you can see that in the discovered access rules CSM shows the hostname as the previously defined ones in the Policy Object Manager. If you dont define those hostnames before the device discovery, you will only see IP addresses, no hostnames, no matter they are set in your firewalls.
    Imagine discovering a couple FWSM modules with 500 access rules, and you only get to see the IP addresses of the 2,500 hosts on your network. And you have all those hosts already defined in your FWSM firewalls, when you log via ASDM you view your hard created rules with hostnames, and when you log to CSM you only view IP addresses. The clients get very disappointed with CSM after that, and discard it. The bigger the network, the faster they reject CSM.
    The only way to add hosts in the Policy Object Manager is 1 by 1. But as this may have happened to more than one company and considering how easy it is to code a feature like that, I assume that it's possible to import a complete list of single hosts to CSM.
    is that really possible? it should be.
    thanks for the replies so far

  • Cisco Security Manager, need global search, i.e. filters are not good at all

    Does anybody know how to work effectively with security manager and filtering?
    It is extremely time consuming and frustrating to work with Cisco Security Manager in regards to search for entries or filter. I have not been able to find some kind of global search, is there?
    How do other people cope with this?

    It appears to have been a temporary issue as the backup is running fine again now... closing the thread.

  • Catalyst 3750x and 4510R and Cisco Security Manager

    Hi,
    I just downloaded and install trial (evaluation) version of Cisco Security Manager 4.3. In supported devices list I saw Cisco Catalyst 3750 and 4510R but when I try to add it I got for 3750:
    Invalid device: Device is a switch and cannot be mapped to a Generic Router model.
    Please verify the selected device type, OS version and device configuration
    For 4510R:
    Invalid device: Version 03.03.00.SG (N/A) is not supported for the device type of Cisco Catalyst 4510R Switch Please verify the selected device type, OS version and device configuration
    We need to make a purchase decision but for it we need to import all of our devices and perform some tests.
    Thanks in advance for your replies!
    BR, Vasily.

    I figured this out on my own -- change Compatibility mode of the installer to be Windows 8 (which is same OS version as Windows 2012) and it installs just fine.

  • Cisco Security Manager evaluation

    How to download CSM software for evaluation ? CSM Q&A state -
    Anybody with a valid cisco.com account can download Cisco Security Manager and use the software for up to
    90 days in evaluation mode. Visit  http://www.cisco.com/go/csmanager  and select the “Download Software”
    But when I click "Download" I get "To Download this software, you must have a valid service contract associated to your Cisco.com user ID."
    Help, plz.
    BR, Oleg.

    You can contact your local AM to get an evaluations version, this is related to the new 'restricted' downloaded access on CCO. You need to have a service contract assocaited for that 'specific' product to download software (I know it does not make sense in case of an evaluation).
    And you also have the following alternate:
    Note:
    This download does not include  CiscoWorks Resource Manager Essentials (RME). For customers that wish to  also evaluate CiscoWorks RME or that prefer a media format rather than a  large download, an evaluation DVD can be ordered from Cisco  Marketplace. At http://www.cisco.com/pcgi-bin/marketplace/welcome.pl,  navigate to the Collateral and Subscriptions Store and search for part  number EVAL-CSMGR-4.0.

  • Cisco Security Manager Advice

    Hi,
    I'm looking into Cisco Security Manager. From what I understand you can monitor and manage Cisco security appliances. I'm interested in the monitoring of our Cisco ASAs - specifically, monitoring VPN sessions and their  trending over months at a time and I would like to monitor other Cisco devices on the network for link problems/performance and such - I don't want to use Cisco Security Manager as a management point. Would Cisco Security Manager not be the right tool for this?
    We have SolarWinds and I've heard that you can assign UnDPs(Device Pollers) to devices you want to monitor, including ASAs and these pollers can give you trending for VPN sessions with graphing. I just want to make the most of our budget dollars.
    Any advice?
    Thanks, Pat.

    CSM 4.3 and above can be used to monitor VPN sessions on Cisco ASAs. You can definitely use CSM as a monitoring only solution for ASAs (without using it for management). You can also explicitly disable policy change privileges for all admins so they do not modify stuff by mistake. Note however that CSM is primarily focused on end-to-end management scenarios (including policy change, troubleshooting, reporting, etc). So you may not find all the bells and whistles in CSM for monitoring scenarios that you may find with some of the pure monitoring only solutions.
