You can only configure remote logging. Cisco Secure ACS Solution Engine appliances configured to use the remote agent send logging data directly to the remote agent logging service, CSLogAgent. CSLogAgent writes the logging data to hard disk in the location specified by the configuration provider. The logs contain the columns specified by the configuration provider.

Hi AS,

Jatin replied you with a useful answer (+5 Jatin).

TFTP/FTP to transfer logs is not possible. You can either use a remote agent on a machine and configure it to collect the logs form a specified ACS OR you can use a syslog server.

Thanks Jatin and Amjad,

I have decided to configure syslog server to send logs, do you have any idea about open source syslog server for windows or linux ?

Thanks,

Hi Almas,

I am sorry I am not aware about any open-source syslog server.

You can search the internet though. Google is your best friend.

Amjad

HI,

I have configured syslog-ng on Linux. I can see Cisco 2960 switch logs but I am not able to see RADIUS logs.

Is there any configuration example for syslog-ng + Cisco ACS 4.2?

Thanks,

I think this is what you need to do. Radius authentication logs will be appearing in Passed and failed authentication and accounting logs will be in radius accounting.

here you can configure syslog server information and fileds that need be sent.

let me know if you have any questions.

If you just can't see radius logs on the syslog-ng server than first make sure they are appearing on the ACS reports and activities.

Good!... so now on syslog-ng you just can't see Radius logs or it doesn't show up any log entries.
