firewall.cisco.asa

Introduction

The tags beginning with firewall.cisco.asa identify events generated by Cisco Adaptive Security Appliance.

Valid tags and data tables

The full tag must have 3 levels. The first two are fixed as firewall.cisco. The third level identifies the type of events sent.

Technology	Brand	Type
firewall	cisco	asa

These are the valid tags and corresponding data tables that will receive the parsers' data:

Tag	Data table
firewall.cisco.asa	firewall.cisco.asa

Log samples

The following are sample logs sent to each of the firewall.cisco.asa data tables. Also, find how the information will be parsed in your data table under each sample log.

Extra columns

Fields marked as Extra in the table below are not shown by default in data tables and need to be explicitly requested in the query. You can find them marked as Extra when you perform a query so they can be easily identified. Learn more about this in Selecting unrevealed columns.
