The Snare Server is capable of receiving logs from CISCO Routers, Switches, and Firewalls via the syslog protocol.
Supported devices include, but are not limited to: CISCO PIX, CISCO Routers, CISCO 6500 Firewall, CISCO NAS 5300 RAS Logs, and Router logs that have been passed through the 'WhatsUp' collection software.
The Snare Server also provides the capability to connect to the Router or Firewall administrative interface, and download a current copy of the network device access controls. These access controls can be compared against a known 'authorised' ruleset, with changes highlighted to the auditor.
The Snare Server can filter on a wide variety of fields within the CISCO source data, including:
- Date/Time
- Source Address
- Destination Address
- Destination Port
- Packet ReturnCode (success/failure/information)
- Event Criticality
- Source Firewall
- Action (accept / drop)
- Source Interface
- Source Port
- Protocol
Snare can provide drill-down access to the raw log data, via overview components such as a '15 minute pattern map', and horizontal bar graphs by source/destination/destination port.
