Cisco :: Detecting Rogue AP Messages In Syslog And Configuring WLC 5500
May 7, 2013
I'm building the use case to test / detect for rogue devices on the network. I have in my enviroment Lan controller 5500 controller with AP (aironet 3500). I want to detect for rogue devices/ap connected to my network. I know before i can see this activity on the network i have to configure the controller / ap to detect this behavior. I'm doing this step.
Authorize AP's against AAA function to make sure that all the AP's registering to your WLC are authorized AP's of the network.By enabling this feature, only those AP's whose mac-addresses are present in the authorization list, will be able to register to the URL
Using Rogue detection. feature, the WLC will be able to detect any AP that is not a part of its RF group and contain it.URL
NOTE: from the forum I have seen other talks about the same issue and saying that if I have any APs in "Rogue Detection" mode sitting on the trunk port on the switch then only, this AP will detect the Rogue on Wired
I don't think i completely understand this statement, by sitting does it mean that it is passively sniffing coming in/out on trunk link?
Considering the above steps are accurate, after this will i be able to see rogue detection behavior in syslogs? What exactly would be the messages that would produce this behavior.

Recently i have upgraded the IOS of ASA5550 (in HA mode) to 8.4.2 from 8.0.5, after OS upgrade we found that the syslog from thses firewalls are not getting captured/transfered to centralised syslog server. The server is reachable from the firewalls.

I have a new install of LMS 4.2 on a virtual appliance. No syslog messages are getting into LMS. They are being received by the server, but are showing up in /var/adm/CSCOpx/log/dmgtd.log, and aren't getting processed by SyslogAnalyser.

LMS 4.1 is not showing any valid syslog messages, only invalid messages. Is there anything different in 4.1 that needs to be set?

I have a newly installed LMS 4.1 that had the Syslog feature working for a while.
Recently, the Syslog is no longer displaying any records (neither new or old messages).
Below are the steps I have tried to troubleshoot the problem:
- Installed wireshark : Syslog messages are being received by the LMS server on time
- In the Syslog.log file, I can see that all the Syslog messages are being logged properly
- I tried to disable all the "Syslog Message Filters" but nothing changed
In the SyslogCollector.log, I can find the below logs:
NMSROOT is C:/PROGRA~2/CSCOpx
propFileC:/PROGRA~2/CSCOpxMDC omcatwebapps
meWEB-INFclassesC:PROGRA~2CSCOpxMDC omcatwebapps
[Code]....

I have a small problem with a lot of invalid syslog messages in LMS 3.2. Something about 30% of all messages are invalid.
Is there any posibility to get out from which devices those messages are?
Is it a big problem for the application if there are such a lot of invalid messages? I have a lot of devices in my LMS and don't want to get high load because of such unneeded messages.

Is there a way to get more messages out of a 2950 set to syslog? I've turned every logging option I can find to DEBUG, but all I get in my syslog are LinkUp/Down messages and "Configured from console by console". I'd love to see more information such as configuration changes, or even someone attempting to set up DTP on a switchport set to access mode.

I bought a RV110W wireless router a couple months ago that I've been pretty happy with.
However, I have one significant problem with it. It is configured to send syslog messages to an internal server. Twice now it has gone into a mode where it starts dumping messages like,
ip_conntrack_is_ipc_allowed: ipc_entry_is_full
continuously, at a rate of about 20 per second. It otherwise seems to function normally, but of course if unnoticed my syslog file quickly grows to hundreds or thousands of megabytes. A reboot restores normal operation. It is running firmware 1.1.0.9. A search on the internet turned up no information about this problem.
It may be some corruption is occuring in the router's OS, or perhaps this is something that can be triggered externally (in which case it would be a weak form of DoS attack? Or maybe worse if in this state it is unable to properly apply the firewall rules.)

I am using Solawinds syslog and trying to get our Cisco routers send syslogs to our syslog server. I followed the procedure on Configuring Cisco Devices to Use a Syslog Server from [URL] Our Cisco swtches are all sending syslog messages but not the routers. I compared the config with our access switches but can't seem to find the problem:
Sample router config:
service nagleno service padservice tcp-keepalives-inservice tcp-keepalives-outservice timestamps debug datetime msec localtime show-timezoneservice timestamps log datetime msec localtime show-timezoneservice password-encryption!hostname WWF-RT1boot-start-markerboot-end-marker!security authentication failure rate 10 logsecurity passwords min-length 8logging buffered 4096logging rate-limit all 10logging console critical!aaa new-model!!
[Code] .......
is there a command that prevents the router from sending the syslog to the server?

We use multiple ASA 5500/5580 cluster systems running 8.3 software versions.Actually we send all our FW syslog data to a SIEM appliance in a DMZ on a remote firewall (non-asa). Recently we suffered a strange incident while implementing a new SIEM collection station now situated in a dmz that is located on one of the ASA contexts. We redirected the syslog streams to the new client for one of the contexts on the ASA cluster that holds the new SIEM agent DMZ..since we did this and redirected the syslog we see double traffic and spoofing errors on that context
a/ the ASA keeps sending out the syslog traffic to the OLD SIEM agent server ip (there is however no trace of its ip in the config)
b/ the traffic leaving the interconnection interface towards the OLD SIEM agent gets a SPOOFING error on the traffic
c/ strangely the data gets also correctly forwarded to the new SIEM collection stations.
We started out with redirecting traffic on only one of the 5 contexts to the new environment and kept logging the others to the old system.I finally got out of the issue by reconfiguring al the other contexts to forward their syslog towards the same new server , since that moment we no longer have the double logging and spoofing error , all syslog traffic goes correctly to the new SIEM agent. It looked like some remenants of the old syslog config remainded on the asa event after deleting and introducing a new config line (we used the asdm to execute the action) as said either it kept the old config or it looked in the other context and "decided" to keep sending to the old server also mentioned in that syslog can find the behaviour in any buglists either way.

It is a Customer requirement to send 802.11 client association/disassociation logs to the Syslog server in a Unified Wireless system. (AIR-CT5508 + LAP1142) [code] Unfortunately I didn't find such logs even in Msg Log with the severity level set to debugging.I was able to do client assoc/disassoc logging with SNMP trap + trap receiver software, BUT is there any way to do this with Syslog?

We have to set up voip for our network(for 50 phones not he cisco phones).
I need to just the route the voip traffic to gateway address of telephonic company(1.1.5.7) where they provide us the connectivity for the setination call.
What sort of protocols should i have to enable in pix i saw the concepts like sip, h323, ras, skinny.
We are using only voip for asa and no data or other traffic should be allowed.
inside adrees: 10.10.10.0/24 for all voip phones
outside:121.21.22.1
telephoneic gateway: 1.1.5.7

Add the ability to send syslog events to multiple syslog servers in the SA500 Series routers. I know the functionality is currently in the RV220W because we utilized it. It would be great if you could configure the syslog servers by event type as well. For example, being able to send the kernel events to syslog server A, and all other events to syslog server B.

We have several WLC's in school sites all connected back to a central WCS (ver6) which is working fine so I am just trying to clear up a few small issues.At a couple of sites I am getting alarms on WCS as per example below which has me at a loss.WCS has detected one or more alarms of category AP and severity Critical in Virtual Domain rootfor the following items:AP 'grafs-S03' is being contained. This is due to rogue device spoofing AP 'grafs-S03' BSSID or targetting AP 'grafs-S03' BSSID. - Controller Name: grafs-wlc-01E-mail will be suppressed up to 30 minutes for these alarms.Then a minute later I get the following to say its no longer being contained.WCS has detected a change in one or more alarms of category AP and severity Critical in Virtual Domain root. The new severity of the following items is Clear:AP 'grafs-S03' with protocol '802.11b/g' on Controller '10.96.192.5' is no longer being contained. Service is restored. - Controller Name: grafs-wlc-01E-mail will be suppressed up to 30 minutes for these changes.

I have a 5508 controller with 70 AP's ( a mix of 1131 and 1142). On the Monitor tab I can see under the Rogue Summary numerous "Rogue AP's" as well as the clients associated to these AP's. There are no Rogue AP's on my wired network according to the report. My question is this: What actions should I take regarding these "Roague AP's"? Many of them appear to be just other AP's in the residential area near by. I know I can take action to classify them as Friendly or Malicious as well as Internal or External, but what benefit is there to doing this? Will taking these actions keep my AP's from scanning off channel for Rogues? I read that if a "Rogue AP" is not on the wired network that is really is not considered a threat. Any Cisco best practices regarding how to handle detected Rogue AP's ?

We have recently deployed a wlc5508 & some 40+ 3502i APs at the location.In the wlc I notice quite a few "rogue AP" listed with ssid's.
Is there a way within the wcs or wlc to determine better if any of these rogue AP are on my Lan?If I can locate the mac address of the ethernet port on the rogue AP I can track the port down on the appropriate switch & shut it down.

I've been noticing a Belkin router on my network for a while now and just yesterday another Linksys router as join the party, causing havoc on my connection speed!
The strange thing is that I'm the only one seeing them through Norton on my laptop, all other computer on my home network is not detecting them. could this mean that someone is monitoring me? is possible? If I move permanently to Ubuntu linux would the problem go away? OR will they still be able to connect and monitor me?

I think this is a bug, but I wanted to check if others have the same problem. If we try to delete rogue AP's under MONITOR > Rogues with Remove Selected then we get a error message Authorization Failed. No sufficient privileges. At first sight, it looks like the AP's are gone, but if you click on the same menu again, they are still there.
My ACS admin user has role1=ALL. I even tried to set role1=MONITOR, then I don't get the message above, but it is stated that I can not delete known rogue AP's.
