How to perform near realtime monitoring of ASA?

[endpoint]

Hi,

we would like to have option to monitor in close to realtime the performances of the ASA.

Need to be able to eg get an alert (email, pager) when number of connection reaches certain level, when CPU goes high, when traffic reaches certain level, etc. What would be Cisco solution to these challenges? Can MARS fulfill this task? Any other third-party solutions to this problem?

Thanks in advance for pointing me in right directions.

we use snmp monitoring tools to do this, you can choose an interval yourself usually 1 or 5 minutes. And that software will send traps.

Cisco has in the Cisco Security Manager Suite the Performance Manager, which might do what you need as well.

Hi,

   You can enable NSEL to do real time monitoring of your ASA traffic. Please refer the below links to monitor Cisco ASA with NSEL.
