Hi Hesham,

It depends what kind of information level you want to get.

- If you only want know that configuration was changed, but without details about what exact change was done, you can easily use logging to syslog server.

- If you want to know what particular change was done, then you can use TACACS+ accouting on ASA in cooperation with AAA server, e.g. ACS.

Hi Hesham,

The way I provided to you is using Syslog messages rather than SNMP traps. Most of NMS has built in syslog server. Configuration sample below:

logging enable

logging buffered informational ! in fact this one was only used to what exactly is being logged - you can omit it

logging trap informational

logging host inside 1.1.1.100

Sample of logs while configuration change is done:

ciscoasa# show logging

(...)

%ASA-5-111008: User 'enable_15' executed the 'configure terminal' command.

%ASA-5-111008: User 'enable_15' executed the 'interface Ethernet 0/1' command.

%ASA-5-111008: User 'enable_15' executed the 'description DDD' command.

%ASA-5-111005: console end configuration: OK

%ASA-6-302015: Built outbound UDP connection 0 for inside:1.1.1.100/514 (1.1.1.100/514) to NP Identity Ifc:1.1.1.1/514 (1.1.1.1/514)

(...)

captures proving syslog has been sent out to syslog server:

ciscoasa# show capture CAPIN

(...)

19: 00:08:34.199345 1.1.1.1.514 > 1.1.1.100.514: udp 71

20: 00:08:34.199345 1.1.1.1.514 > 1.1.1.100.514: udp 80

21: 00:08:34.679316 1.1.1.1.514 > 1.1.1.100.514: udp 50

I hope that helps. If not, just let me know.

regards,

Pawel

Thank you Pawel,

Is it possible to use SNMP traps instead since logs are already sent to a syslog server?

I am also not able to receive the syslog message that defines a change has occured!
