Create a Remote Log Source - Cisco ISR

Topics Discussed

You can use this document to send Cisco Integrated Services Router (ISR) logs to Armor's Security Information & Event Management (SIEM).

This document only applies to:

• Cisco Integrated Services Router (ISR) (IOS)

Pre-Deployment Considerations

To create a remote Log Relay, you must already have:

• A Log Relay server on your account

  • To learn how to add Log Relay to your account, see Obtain Log Relay for Remote Log Collection

• Configured the system clock

Update Your Cisco ISR Device

1. Log into your Cisco ISR device.

2. Access the privileged EXEC mode:

   hostname> enable

3. Access the global configuration mode:

   hostname# configure terminal

4. Enable logging:

   hostname(config)# logging on

5. Configure the global logging settings:

   hostname(config)# no logging console hostname(config)# logging trap warning hostname(config)# logging origin-id hostname

6. Configure the logs to be sent to a designated Armor Log Relay device:

   hostname(config)# logging source-interface <interface> hostname(config)# logging host <ipaddress> transport <protocol> port <port>

7. Exit the configuration:

   hostname(config)# exit

8. Save the changes:

   hostname# write memory

9. Review the logging configuration:

   hostname# show run all logging logging enable logging timestamp logging hide username logging buffer-size 4096 logging asdm-buffer-size 100 logging buffered warnings logging trap warnings logging asdm warnings logging device-id hostname logging host inside 100.64.0.10 17/5140 logging flash-minimum-free 3076 logging flash-maximum-allocation 1024
