Syslog server
Hi guys, I am currently running Kiwi syslog serverwhich sees certasin messages from my wlc but I cannot get it to capture debug lwapp events.
Syslog seems setup ok as I get messages but unsure what the specific settings are for debug forwarding, had a look at Cisco doc but not too much help in this case unfortunately.
Anyone experienced with Kiwi or syslog in general?
Screenshot attached.
I'm thinking that there may be some confusion between console debug vs syslog debug levels.
For example:
console debugging monitors events per environment/configuration
syslog debug is for system events related to the operating system.
You can capture the console syslogs with either a terminal server or terraterm with logging turned on

How to log successful logins to a syslog server in NX-OS
Does anyone know how to do this in NX-OS? I do it in IOS with the following commands:
login on-failure log
login on-success log
logging x.x.x.x
With that I get a syslog message that I can then log to a file to track who has logged into which device and when. But I can't find the syntax to do the same thing in the Nexus switches that we have. Does anyone know what the equivalent commands are?
Thanks,
BenHi Ben,
By default, failed logins are logged.
You can checked the log using:
show logging logfile | last 15
and for every logging failed (by default) you will get something like this:
2012 Dec 18 14:51:08 Nexus5010-B %AUTHPRIV-3-SYSTEM_MSG: pam_aaa:Authentication
failed for user en from 2.2.2.1 - login
To get the success-login to show up in the logs we need to increase the level of the authpriv to 5 (it is 3 by default), and doing this will add a new log for failed or succesful connections.
Use the following command:
Nexus5010-A(config)# logging level authpriv 5
You can check loggin levels by using:
#show logging level
After you do this with the logging level you will see in the log something like this when a succesful login takes place:
2005 Jan 6 03:29:48 Nexus5010-A %AUTHPRIV-5-SYSTEM_MSG: admin :TTY=unknown
; PWD=/var/sysmgr/vsh ; USER=root ; COMMAND=/usr/bin/strings/proc/18340/environ
- sudo
Now for a failed login and after increasing the authpriv level you will see the following logs:
2005 Jan 6 03:31:36 Nexus5010-A %AUTHPRIV-4-SYSTEM_MSG: pam_unix(aaa:auth):check pass; user unknown - aaad
2005 Jan 6 03:31:36 Nexus5010-A %AUTHPRIV-5-SYSTEM_MSG: pam_unix(aaa:auth):
aut
hentication failure; logname= uid=0 euid=0 tty= ruser= rhost= - aaad
For logging *****
Nexus7018(config)# logging ?
console Set console logging
event Interface events
ip IP configuration
level Facility parameter for syslog messages

Setting up a network syslog server
I am trying to move my syslog server (which captures my router logs) from a Slackware Linux box to my OS X machine. I have had good luck except for one small detail. Every time *periodic daily* runs syslogd stops accepting the UDP syslog packets that the router is sending.
I have updated com.apple.syslogd.plist to be:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple Computer//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd">
<plist version="1.0">
<dict>
<key>Label</key>
<string>com.apple.syslogd</string>
<key>ServiceDescription</key>
<string>Apple System Log Daemon</string>
<key>OnDemand</key>
<false/>
<key>ProgramArguments</key>
<array>
<string>/usr/sbin/syslogd</string>
<string>-u</string>
</array>
<key>ServiceIPC</key>
<false/>
</dict>
</plist>
The only thing I changed was to add "<string>-u</string>" to turn on the UDP listener. And it works, too. Except that at 03:14 every morning periodic does a +kill -HUP+ to the daemon and, for some unknown reason, this turns off the UDP listener.
If I do a full kill to syslogd, which results in a new task completely, it starts with the listener running.
If I do a +ps -A|grep syslogd+ I do see the "-u" in the command even if the listener isn't listening.
I think it might be a bug in the -HUP handler in the syslogd code but I don't know the right place to post the question other than here.
For the forum: is anyone else running syslogd and collecting network log traffic? If you are then do you experience the same problem? I know I can work around the problem by putting in a local daily kill and I probably will but I shouldn't have to should I?
Any thoughts would be appreciated.
Bill WNo, but the servers have been hiccuping lately. When that occurs, I usually quit the browser, relaunch it, empty/delete the cache, and log back in. That seems to clear things up.

How can I use my MAC OS X as syslog server ??
Hi Team,
Can you please help me in configuring my MAC machine as syslog server for my Cisco routers ?? I have the devices on same network and would like to forward all syslog messages to my MAC machine for analysing them.
Thanks,Crocosmia wrote:

Check your machine's actual specifications here.
It looks like you can support up to 3 MByte in a 17" iMac and up to 4 Mbyte in a 20" iMac, if your cache size coordinates with the specs on the linked page.
OWC says you should be able to put 4 Gbyte into your machine here. Wherever you get the memory, it would be a good addition. This is the Apple Store listing for your machine, as near as I can figure it. -
ACS appliance1120 ACS 4.2.1.15 syslog message to syslog server
Hi All ,
I am using ACS 1120 appliance running ACS version 4.2.1.15 , I am pointing out all syslog message to my external syslog server (passed authentication , failed authentication , database replication , administration aduit ,tacacs accounting ) , but i could recieve only passed authentication log message to my external log server , no other log message except passed authentication is pushed to my external log server , But i could see failed attempts , database replication,administrtation audit log message locally on my acs appliance as CSV file ,
Syslog server configuration is configured under all logging (passed , failed , administration , tacacs accounting ) , but i am surprise to see only passed authentication logg is sent out from acs appliance , Is there any patch to be installed for logg message scripting ?? , please advise ..Refer the link : https://supportforums.cisco.com/discussion/11513026/migrating-acs-420-421

Report export to third party syslog server
Hi all,
Is there a way to send the Cisco ACS secure server report to third party syslog server?
Example: for audit purpose, i need the data extract from Monitoring & Reports > Reports > Catalog > AAA Protocol
I trying by create new remote log targets, the IP is pointing to third party syslog server.
and at the logging categories > global, i apply the new create log collector to all logging categoires.
Am i doing it right?
please comment, thanks
NoelHi Yong,
Yes that's possible. You can use the web interface to configure logging category messages so that they are sent to remote syslog server targets
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/net_mgmt/cisco_secure_access_control_system/5.3/user/guide/logging.html#wp1052741
ACS provides these preconfigured global ACS logging categories, to which you can assign log targets.

How to avoid links upp/down being propagated to the syslog server?
How do you avoid approx 5 billion links up/down filling up the Syslog server when you connect a couple of hundred Cisco Switches? Apart from setting the Level to Critical.
If possible we would like to gett messages from Warning and upwards in order to be able to pinpoint problems before they happen (or atleast find out what caused them) but not at the cost of having the whole logg drenched in links upp/down! We would also like the link-messages to remain in the switch log.You can create a logging discriminator to filter out those messages and then specify the discriminator in the logging host definition.
For instance:
logging discriminator FILTER mnemonics drops UPDOWN
logging trap notifications
logging host <syslog_server_address> discriminator FILTER
(Note the discriminator name is limited to 8 characters.) -
Cisco ISE and external syslog server
Hi Security Experts,
We are starting with deploying cisco ISE (Identity Services Engine) in our network. We have allocated 250GB space for (Admin+Monitor) ISE node.
I want to know if we can send the logs from monitoring node to external syslog server after a defined time interval.
For example, logs which are more than 10 days old should be sent to external syslog server. So basically our monitoring node will have logs which are at the max 9 days old. Is it possible? Could you point me to some doc which explains configuration of the same?
Thanks,
KashishNo this isnt possible via syslog. What you are looking for is database purging, so that the monitoring database is purged after a specific time interval. Here is a guide that will help shed some light on this:

Can Cisco Prime Infra 2.1 work as syslog server
Hello all,
Customer want Cisco Prime Infra 2.1 to work as syslog server. they want to query text in syslog and get raw log file from Cisco Prime Infra. but when i see in user interface. I think that it cannot query and search text in syslog. but i am not sure whether we can get raw log file per devices from Cisco Prime Infra. Can anyone know about this.?
thanks
sompojHi Sompoj,
In the prime infrastructure Syslogs are directly read from udp port 514 and then filtered
, the non SEV1 and SEV2 syslogs will be dropped and will not be entered into db . The
syslog messages will not be saved into log files .

I think I have to use these conmmands
login block-for 60 attempts 3 within 60
login delay 1
login on-failure log every 3
login on-success log
but these commands do not support on my routers, I use "c2800nm-adventerprisek9-mz.124-11.T4.bin"
Which IOS does support these commands?

No Messages from Syslog Server
We have ASA 5550 (ver. 8.0.4). We configured the ASA so that messages can be sent to Syslog server. We were able to ping the Syslog server from the ASA. However, no messages are sent to the Syslog server. The Syslog server has been configured to accept messages from the ASA. Below is part of the config of the ASA. Thanks.

Configuration required in Cat 4006 to forward errors to syslog server
Hi,
I have setup a Kiwi syslog server. I want to configure in my Cat 4006 switch to forward the following messages to my syslog server
1. configuration changes
2. Vlan creation /modification
3. Power supply failures/module failures/temperature
4. When the processor utlization exceeds more than 75% , it should send a alert message to syslog server
5. Switch restart
6. Trap for any changes in Uplink ports only. There are 4 uplinks to other Switches from 4006. If any problem with these ports (uplink), it should send message to syslog server , not for all ports
Thanks in advance
RajuHi
I feel this link will be of some help to u in configuring different severity levels for different facilities available.
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/partner/products/hw/switches/ps663/products_configuration_guide_chapter09186a00800d81c8.html
By default for abnormal temp conditions u will get logs in the syslog server if u have already pointed the logs to the syslog server..

FWSM not reaching it´s Syslog Server
Hi,
I have a FWSM Ver. 4.1(5) configured in transparent mode. My problem is that the FWSM is not reaching the Syslog Server. The FWSM can reach other Servers in the 10.10.113.0/24 Subnet, which is the Syslog Server´s Subnet.
What can be causing this behavior? Why is it that I can ping some host but no others on the same Subnet? I have 5 Bridge Groups on ths FWSM and I have a management IP address for each BVI.
Thank you in Advanced.quote:

In your code you're sending also the variables thru GET, as

Have you tried to remove the GET arguments? Passing the URL
just as "
http://www.example.comcom/"
and sending the variables act, action, login and air also in the
POST data?
Bye,

Hello, Thanks for the help.
The variables I'm sending through GET are different to the
ones I'm attempting to send through POST. The GET variables are
needed to make the server run the correct PHP script.
I did remove the variables and attempt to try POST to
"test.php" without any variables but it didn't help, it still isn't
POSTing anything - it's just sending a GET request. -
Forwarding Events to a central syslog server.
I need to find an easier way to forward all IDS events to a central Syslog server. I am doing it a cheesy way now by running a macro against the IEV database and extracting the results from the exported file. I used to be able to do this with the Unix Director. Is there an easy way to do this? Is there a raw event file that I could directly transfer from the IDS Sensor?
The following document should give you a better idea,

Logging ACL entry to Syslog server
I have a simple access-list configured on the outside of an ASA
access-list outside_in permit tcp any host x.x.x.x eq 80
access-list outside_in permit tcp any host x.x.x.x eq 443
access-list outside_in deny ip any any
Could someone please post a sample config showing how I can log all entries that hit the deny statement, and send them to a syslog server?
Thanks in advanceHi,
You just need to add a "log" key word after the ACL and then it would be sent to your syslog server.
access-list outside_in deny ip any any log
Hope that helps,
Thanks,
