PIX with SNMP

townofnewmarket
Level 1
Level 1

I have a PIX 515 version 6.3 software.

I use What's UP Gold for some basic network monitoring. What I really want to keep an eye on for the PIX is

sho connections

How do I do that with SNMP? I can't seem to find it in the MIB at all...and does Cisco offer any sort of software to make monitoring the PIX (CPU, Memory, Connections, etc) nice and easy?

Thank you.

Chief-

No easy way, just have to use the MIBs. Hope these help.

PIX/ASA/FWSM

System: 1.3.6.1.2.1.1

Interfaces: 1.3.6.1.2.1.2

IP: 1.3.6.1.2.1.4

Memory: 1.3.6.1.2.1.4.1.9.9.48

CPU: 1.3.6.1.2.1.4.1.9.9.109

Firewall: 1.3.6.1.2.1.4.1.9.9.147

Buffers: 1.3.6.1.2.1.4.1.9.9.147.1.2.2.1

Connections: 1.3.6.1.2.1.4.1.9.9.147.1.2.2.2

SSL Stats: 1.3.6.1.4.1.3076.2.2.26

IPSec Stats: 1.3.6.1.2.1.4.1.9.9.171

Active Connections in PIX/ASA Firewall: 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.147.1.2.2.2.1.5.40.7

The total number of currently active IPsec Phase-2 Tunnels: 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.171.1.3.1.1.0

You will need the following MIBs: IF-MIB, RFC1213-MIB, CISCO-MEMORY-POOLMIB, CISCO-PROCESS-MIB, ENTITY-MIB, CISCO-SMI, CISCO-FIREWALL-MIB, ASA also adds CISCO-IPSEC-FLOW-MONITOR-MIB, CISCO-FIPS-STAT-MIB, and ALTIGA-SSL-STATS-MIB.

Ugh, what I was afraid of!

Take a look at FireGen reporter for PIX from Altair Technology.

It's not the most intuitive piece of software that I've ever set up, but it does a good job in analyzing syslog files.

It wouldn't be a real-time monitor, but you could probably set it up to generate reports as frequently as you desire.
