Alerting or logging from AnyConnect NAM

[mvijay025]

We are planning to use Cisco AnyConnect Network Access Manager as a 802.1x supplicant for our wired network as we ran into issues with  Microsoft

native supplicant. There are certain advantages in using inbuilt supplicant on Windows as one can get desired information from event log about the dot1x events and use them to alert in case of failures. I however don't see a similar logging available in Cisco AnyConnect NAM. We can of course use DART bundle, but we would like to have a detailed dynamic logs from the client to build automation to alert NOC on any dot1x failure in the network.

Thanks,

Vijay

You should use "live authentication" logs from ISE. You can also configure to switch to send the switch logs to ISE, that way when you click the details of ISE "live authentication" you will see in the same screen both the ISE logs and the switch logs.

If you want alerts, you can go to "Operations > Alarms > Rules" and set alarms. You can configure ISE to send the alarms by email or by using syslog.
