AAA syslog IDs not showing up in Syslog server

ethutchinson

We have two FTD 1140Ns in an HA environment managed by a FMCv. Both are running 7.2.5. I setup a flexconfig statement to do

"aaa local authentication attempts  max-fail 5"

We have seen the command work during a production day. We then run "clear aaa local user lockout username username" to clear it.
Weird thing is I can see in the syslog the user attempting to put in their password incorrectly (syslog id 113015). I do not see the user get locked out (syslog id 113006) or the unlock we do (syslog id 113007).

Like I mentioned the unlock works. I was trying to setup a syslog event based alert to let us know about the lockout itself and I was hoping to base it off syslog id 113006.

Any ideas?

MHM,

Would that be under platform settings, syslog, logging setup?

Since you ship logs to a syslog/siem i would personally use a lower value as these local logs should be used only in very specific circumstances.

So you do not see the user locked event generated, do you see use locked after the attempts done ?

syslog settings - check by any chance that event Id disabled ?
