new to ids. what do i need to monitor and report on ios firewall via w2k

Hi, I have a Cisco router running IOS firewall directly connected to the Internet. I am using Cisco Secure ACS running on a Windows 2000 server to administer my accounts etc... the real question is what software do I need to administer and report on IDS events? and can I run it on the same server as Secure ACS?

Thank you for your time.

One solution that I can think of is the Cisco IDS software version 3.1. It is web-based management enabling secure remote management product for Cisco's IDS appliance family. Version 3.1 includes a new event viewing application that provides analysis and data mining for threat management and attack mitigation across all Cisco network-based IDS solutions.
