MARS

[lm20ele]

I'm trying to setup MARS so it can alert me when failed attemps to our cisco switches 3750. Is it possible to do it? I have configured my switches with the commands required to log, but I don't see any logs for this failed attemps.

Any idea how can I complete this task?

What exactly do you mean by "failed attempts"? Is it failed NAC authentication or failed telnet/SSH access you're looking for?

An example of telnet access logging alerts would be to setup the switches to syslog debug to the MARS and then create a rule on the MARS to look for these messages.

I'm trying to log any telnet/ssh failed access made to our switches.

Let me see if I understood. I need to turn on AAA authentication and then create a rule on MARS?

I have a write-up on my blog about how you can achieve this. You can find it at:

LMK if this helps.
