MARS - IOS interface up down, AD securuty entries

Our MARS appliance is running V4.2.1. We have about 40 or 50 IOS switches sending their entries to it. We see interface up and down transitions all the time as expected.
It seems that for many of the entries in MARS, the interesting data, such as the actual port number that went up or down, is nowhere to be found. Am I simply drilling wrong?
We have the same problem with Windows Active Directory security entries - we can see user account changes, but not who made them or which account was changed.

Seymour,
We see similar events on our MARS appliance too. We have nearly 300 switches logging to it now so you can imagine the up/down alerts that we have generated! You are correct that MARS does not provide complete information in the incident view. You are doing nothing incorrect. Keep in mind that the MARS appliance is aggregating a massive amount of security/system data and needs to normalize it to data fields that are most important when it comes to attack information. To view full messages keep in mind that you can view the "Raw Data" directly from the incident screen. In the case of interface up/down messages this would show you the exact port (it's found directly next to the "Reporting Device" name). Keep in mind that Cisco now has enchanced notifications using XML. This exported data contains the raw message that could be included as part of a notification like this:

  • IDSM-2 Logical interface up/down

    Hello!
    IDSM-2 from my customers are using.
    Questions before we work with CPU1 HIGH issue, now on SPAN monitoring is set to TX.
    IDSM-2 of the g07, 08 with the INTERFACE UP / DOWN is repeated.
    For the uplink traffic in / out total 80 ~ 200mbps & show intrura module 9 data-port 1 traffic in the 80 ~ 100mbps can see the traffic.
    traffic and whether you're related to span? or h / w failure is
    What the hell do not know.

    Thank you.
    However, i do not understand.
    Why, promiscious interface is up / down repeated.
    Customers are very concerned that.
    up / down repeatedly since the interface is down, since there will not be up.
    reset after the interface is up.
    promiscious interface need to be aware that you have?

    I lost sound shortly after iOS 6 was down loaded. Sound works with headphones. When no headphones are plugged in and I try to use the volume control on side sound effects comes up but no sound is made. I get sound over main speaker when i adjust alert volume. I restarted and downloaded iOS 6 update with no results.

  • Will iOS 5 bog down my first generation iPad?

    Will iOS 5 bog down my first generation iPad?

    Since iOS5 has not been release, we don't know. Anyone who does know, is likely under NDA to not discuss it on these public forums.  (We don't even know if iOS5 "will bog down" and iPad2 either. )
    Best to wait until iOS5 is released, but don't install it immediately, and wait for what everyone else says.

  • Interface goes down with mds9140

    Hi
    I've a problem with both MDS 9140. The fc interface goes down and don't go up when I reboot a device connected to them with a fiber. To solved the problem I need to remove the gbic and plug it back again. I use the following version of software
    Software
    BIOS: version 1.0.8
    loader: version 1.1(2)
    kickstart: version 1.2(1a)
    system: version 1.2(1a)
    Fabrice

    It is probably a software defect where if a port is up for over 248 days, Once link is lost, it will not come back w/o a shut/no shut or manual intervention as you describe. This issue is resolved in the 1.3.4b and above code. For a 91xx, this would be a disruptive upgrade. Or, simply issue a shut/no shut on an affected port and you'll be good for another 248 days.

  • Interface VLAN down

    I add VLAN and interface vlan with no shutdown command on MSFC but when i put show ip interface brief comand I have down and down. What cause this problem ??

    I guess I should have been more clear in my answer but didn't want to cause confusion.
    Now I have not tried this lately on a catos box so it may be different
    If a port is down/down it means there is no entry in the vlan database for it. It normally also means that there is no port assigned to that vlan also but you can accomplish this by assigning a port and then deleteing the vlan database. Either way you will get a down/down condition.
    Once you add the vlan to the database the interface will go UP/DOWN. This means there is no active access port on the switch and the vlan is not allowed on any trunks that may be up.
    Once a vlan becomes active either on a trunk or access port it goes to up/up
    Part of the confusion with this is that cisco adds entries to the vlan database automatially when you add access ports to a unkown vlan.
    The problems come when someone sees this down/down condition on a switch and checks that they allow all vlans on a active trunk port and it still doesn't work. In this case all you do is add the vlan database entry and it will come up.

  • ASA 5505 Logging Issue - Warning: Configured logging host interface conflicts with route table entry

    I am getting this warning on my ASA 5505 when I try to set up logging from my off site FW to the central FW, which is a 5510. What I am trying to do is send the FW logs through the VPN Tunnel into the central 5510 to our logging server at 192.168.22.99, but allow all other traffic out the outside interface so customers can hit our web servers down there.

  • What is the normal amount of GB of Other Space for a new 32 GB Ipod touch 5 Generation with iOS 6.1.3? Also, will iOS 7 slow down/drain the battery of my device?

    My Other storage space was at 2.84 GB after i loaded all my music/apps onto a recently purchased 32 GB Ipod touch 5 Generation with iOS 6.1.3.  Resetting the settings and removing the music and apps did not help reduce the Other space.  I restored to a backup and got my Other storage space down to almost 400 MB.  When I started syncing music it grew 500-ish MB.  Each time I sync, the Other grows a bit more.  This is really irritating.
    The official listed available GB on my 32 GB is 28.22 GB (not including Other), so now I am irritated knowing that this Other is taking up my space when I didn't even have 32 GB of free space to begin with. So 28.22 - 2.84GB = 25.38 GB.
    I want to restore to a new device to see if that helps, but do not want to upgrade to i0S7.  Is there any way to do this?
    If I upgrade to i0S 7 I am worried it might slow my ipod or drain the battery faster.  Will it do that?  The ipod is expensive and I dont want it to go downhill and obsolete on me because it can't handle a better operating system. 

    Less than 1 1/5 GB is normal. It does grow with time.

  • Is iOS 8 slowing down the wi fi on my iPad air?

    Having lived through several OS updates I know that it takes a little while for apps to all be updated and for little glitches to be worked out.  However, I think iOS 8 has brought on some real issues with my iPad Air. 
    The overall issue is a slow connection to the internet.  This happens at home and in several other locations where I have used the wi-fi since updating to iOS 8 a few weeks, ago.  My work PC works fine (well... at least, the internet does), but my daugter's iPad mini (also updated to iOS 8) will slow down when she is watching Netflix, occassionally.  The family also has an iMac, which is working fine. 
    While using the Washtington Post (downloading the newspaper), Pinterest, Safari, You Tube, Mail and the App Store, the connection seems to slow down to a crawl making it impossible to continue what I am doing. 
    I've shut down and restarted the iPad, and then it works fine for a while, only to slow down again sometime later.  Sometimes the problem will seem to fix itself, but then it slows down again.  Sometimes, it happens when it comes out of sleep mode, and sometimes not.   Since I use my iPad to work from home, it is really frustrating.  I can delay my gratification when it comes to games and such, but not when I am updating my blog or reading my email. 
    I've Googled iOS 8 and wi fi and saw that there are a number of issues out there.  Some of the big tech magazines and websites are tracking some similiar issues.  I'm curious if anyone knows if this is all related to iOS 8 and if a future update will resolve it, or if there are ways I can test my hardware on my iPad to make sure it is working properly. 
    Thanks!
