determining all traffic in and out of asa

mialbert — Mon, 11 Mar 2019 20:36:43 GMT

Just wondering if there are any methods or commands, natively, in the asa5510

for determing all traffic in to and from a certain server passing through the asa. This would be without a syslog server or something similar.

Hi,

Well for checking the traffic to and from the ASA, for a particular server would be a bit difficult without a syslog server, but on the ASA you have these options:

show conn | in

logging on

logging buffered 7

show logg | in

After some time you would have top clear the ASA buffer by:

clear logg buffer

You can also monitor the traffic from ASDM, that would be simpler.

Thanks,

Yes thanks. isn't there a way i can specify the size of the logging buffer. So i wouldn't need to remember

about having to periodically clear the buffer. something equal to say a week at a

time.

Hi,

yes you can specify the size of logging buffer by the command "logging buffer-size "

The default size of the buffer is 4KB only.

Hope this helps.

Thanks,
