Node of ISE surveillance as syslog destination

Hi Security Experts,

We set up Cisco ISE (Identity Services Engine) in our network.

I have the confusion if we set the tracking of the address of the node IP as destination syslog on access switches. In which situations it is necessary and in what situations is it not necessary?

PS: I rate of useful messages.

Thank you

Boudou,

When you look at the report of user authentication, ISE also manufactures related syslog messages that relate to the user login.

Is not required but useful because it helps to establish a correlation between the syslog messages to the session of the user authentication. Here's an example of it in action:

  • Read only Web access to the nodes of ISE

    Hi all

    How can we create an account read only for web access from nodes Cisco ISE? I created a new user name with the role of the 'user' but not able to log into the web administration page.

    Thank you best regards &,.

    RBAC policies determine if an administrator can benefit from a specific type of access to a menu item, or other elements of group identity data. You can grant or deny access to a data item menu group to point or identity to an administrator from the admin group by using RBAC policies. When administrators log on the administration portal, they can access menus and data which are based on policies and permissions set for the administrative groups with which they are associated.

    Political RBAC map admin groups menu access and data access permissions. For example, you can prevent a network administrator to display the menu of operations Admin Access and policy data elements. This can be achieved by creating a RBAC policy customized to the admin group that is associated with the network administrator.

    Cisco ISE allows you to create custom menus for the access permissions that you can map to a RBAC policy. According to the role of administrators, you can allow access to only the specific menu options.

    Step 1 choose Administration > system > Admin Access > permission > permission > access to the Menu.

    Step 2, click Add and enter values for the name and Description fields.

    Step 3: click to enlarge the menu until the desired item, then click on the menu item (s) on which you want to create permissions.

    Step 4 in the permissions for the domain of the access to the Menu, click view.

    Step 5 click on submit.

  • Cisco ISE and external syslog server

    Hi Security Experts,

    We start with deployment cisco ISE (Identity Services Engine) in our network. We have allocated 250 GB of space for the node (Admin + monitor) ISE.

    I want to know if we can send tracking of nodes of external syslog server logs after a defined time interval.

    For example, newspapers that are more than 10 days are for external syslog server. So basically our node monitoring will have the marbles which are the Max 9 days. Is this possible? Could you tell me some doc that explains the configuration of the same thing?

    Thank you

    Boudou

    No this is not possible via syslog. What you need is database purge, so that the monitoring database is purged after a determined time interval. Here's a guide that will help shed some light on this:

  • Upgrading ISE to the deployment of node 2.0 - two

    Hello!

    As we know that the ISE 1.3 can be upgraded to ISE 2.0 in two different ways. One is to use the upgrade of the Application that is fully automatic and the other way is the new facility of ISE 2.0 (full to the top of the nodes of ISE before installation).

    Tutorials I've seen so far, described primarily on Application upgrade method, but I would like to know about the new facility of ISE 2.0. I choose this option, because it gives us more granular control of the upgrade.

    If anyone have tried this second method for the ISE2.0 upgrade, please share your experience, and give us the procedure step by step. Thank you in advance.

    Bala

    Hello Bala-

    You can do one or the other. Personally, I prefer the direct upgrade path as the back/restore doesn't cary all settings and configurations. In addition, you will need to get new license keys as the ISE system will be new/different, so your old license keys will not work.

    I hope this helps!

  • Best practices for the restart of the nodes of the ISE?

    Hello community,

    I administer an ISE installation with two nodes (I'm not a specialist of the ISE, my job is simply to manage the user/mac-addresses... but now I have to move my ISE a VMWare Cluster nodes to another VMWare Cluster.

    (Both VMWare environments are connected to our network of the company, but are different environments. vMotion is not possible)

    I want to stop ISE02, move it to our new VMWare environment and start it again.

    That I could do this with our ISE01 node...

    Are there best practices to achieve this? (Stop request first, stopl replikation etc.) ?

    Can I really just reboot a node ISE - or I have consider something before I do this? After I did this?

    All tasks after reboot?

    Thanks for any answer!

    ISE01
    Administration, monitoring, Service policy
    PRI (A), DRY (M)

    ISE02
    Administration, monitoring, Service policy
    SEC (A), PRI (M)

    There is a lot to consider here.  If changing environments involves a change of IP address and IP extended, then your policies, profiles and DACL would also change among other things.  If this is the case, create a new VM ISE in the new environment in evaluation license using the and recreate the old environment deployment by using the address of the new environment scheme.  Then a new secondary node set rotation and enter it on the primary.  Once this is done, you can re - host license from your old environment on your new environment.  You can use this tool to re - host:

    https://Tools.Cisco.com/swift/LicensingUI/loadDemoLicensee?formid=3999

    If IP addressing is to stay the same, it becomes simpler.

    First and always, perform an operational backup and configuration.

    If the downtime is not a problem, or if you have a window of maintenance of an hour or so: just to close the two nodes.  Transfer to the new environment and light them, head node first, of course.

    If the downtime is a problem, stop the secondary node and transfer it to the new environment.  Start the secondary node and when he comes back, stop the main node.  Once that stopped services on the head node, promote the secondary node to the primary node.

    Transfer of the FORMER primary node to the new environment and turn it on.  She should play the role of secondary node.  If it is not the case, assign this role through the GUI.

    Remember, the proper way to shut down a node of ISE is:

    request stop ise

    Halt

    By using these commands, the risk of database corruption decreases by 90% (remember to always backup).

  • Saving a second node - ISE 1.2

    Hi guys,.

    I am trying to record a second knot on my head node of ISE. But, I get the following error:

       
     
     
    Impossible to authenticate ISE xxxx... Please check the server and the configuration of the CA certificate and try again.

    I did import/export certificates in two ISEs.

    They can ping by IP address and domain COMPLETE each other.

    Zone are the same, but I did still not active NTP. (I thing that may be the problem, although they have the same time)

    I did the import/export tab "local certificates". I have not used "Certificate Signing Request".

    Anyone know if something has changed in ISE 1.2 and now local certificates no longer works?

    I also have can´t add my ISE to RFA, but this is another fight.

    Any advice will be appreciated!

    Good job on finding a solution to your problem and for taking the time to share with everyone! (+ 5 from me) :)

    For your first step: I really don't know why you had to perform this step. The name of user and password that you created during the initial installation (from CLI) should have worked to enter the secondary node.

    For your second step: you're right, the FULL domain name must match or the cert will fail.

    If your problem is resolved please mark it as "answered" :)

  • ISE PSN node will not be joining the cluster

    Hi all

    Has anyone seen a problem where an NHP cannot join the cluster?

    We join node of PSN

    -Node is saved successfully (current synchronization)

    -1 hour later - node replication failure.

    -Replication synchronization failed because the secondary database is down

    I have a client where admin node and PSN are separated by the firewall.

    We let in two directions

    Admin <-->PSN

    ICMP

    HTTPS

    1521

    Firewall not showing drops.

    DNS and NTP are ok.

    Current topology is 1 NHP, 1 Admin node.

    Works very well in our test lab, but not clients environmnet.

    See you soon

    Peter.

    Thank you for the update we and good work on the search for the solution! You should probably mark it as resolved now

    In addition, it is quite rare (at least for me) for nodes of ISE to be separated by firewalls. There are a lot of ports/protocols that must be opened between them is usually more of a pain to manage. In addition, sometimes ports will change too. For example, the fueling port agent has been changed not too long ago...

    Thanks for the note!

  • Two destinations for Syslog

    Is it possible to set up a second IP to Syslog destination on an ESXi 4.0 server address. I read that ESXi on supports a single destination, however, I also read that a work-around has been put in place a syslog relay. If a second destination is possible, is it supported by VMware, and someone can share with me the steps on how to set up? Thank you...

    As far as I know that a single destination is possible with ESXi.  You need to configure a Repeater on a different host to forward syslog messages to multiple receivers.

  • How can I activate the "Host key" for my sftp to the ISE Server?

    I can't copy my files to upgrade 1.2 ISE to my repositories the.

    Here is a cut and paste of my CLI on one of my knots ISE after attemtping to copy from my workstation (running a SFTP server) to one of my nodes of ISE.

    % Please reconfigure the host key option

    % Error: transfer not possible

    I don't have whatever it is configured with the option "host key.

    I googled and searched, but cannot find references limited to the "Host key" command within Cisco. I tried various forms of it on the ISE node with no luck.

    I tried an FTP transfer, but it does not work.

    Any ideas?

    You can try to add a repository to your local configuration as an sftp server that should start the process host key.

  • ISE - updated from 17 to 1.4 Patch 1.2.0.899

    Hello

    I am responsible for the ISE upgrade to 1.4.  Part of the statement to declare the following:

    "If you upgrade a node Cisco ISE on a virtual machine (VM) to version 1.2 or 1.2.1 after you upgrade, make sure that you turn off the virtual machine and change the guest to Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 (64-bit) operating system" and turn on the computer after the change virtual. ".

    Is this something that can be done when I stopped the machine for the snapshot?  I have to bring someone else to the side of the virtual machine of things and wants to do everything sooner rather than later.

    After that, I will be looking for then go to 2.0.  If anyone has advice, tips or other advice they would like to offer, I'd like to hear them. :)

    Thank you!

    Beth,

    This is the post-niveau update tasks have to be performed once the upgrade is complete. If you have plans to take a picture after the upgrade then Yes you can do.

  • Several EAP ISE certificates

    Hello

    I am aware that the ISE may only use EAP for a certificate but is this limitation by interface or the entire node?

    If it's for the whole node then what is a recommended practice for EAP shared? All use a cert? Use several nodes of ISE?

    We are running a double-knot on 1.3 configuration

    Unfortunately, this is not possible. And I have not heard that it is on the roadmap.

    Thank you for evaluating useful messages!

  • ISE 1.3 public wildcard cert

    Is this a good idea and practice simply use public CA certificate wildcard on each node of ISE to avoid warnings of certificate on non-corporate devices?

    is this ok and then use it also for the EAP - TLS authentication? Customers will always have internal Cert CA.

    Or we would have a separate internal wildcard cert for EAP - TLS. In this case, ISE 1.3 will allow me to have Wildcard certificates with the same SAN (*. domain.com) we're public, the other is internal. The public, would apply to Web portals and an intern would be applicable for EAP - TLS.

    Hi Trevor,

    If I'm not mistaken, you have EAP - TLS server and client certificates signed by a different CA, but ONLY if, in your primary node of PAN ISE-> certificate store, you have a valid certificate / signature of the AC even who signed the certificate presented by the client.

    EAP - TLS is authentication of certificate in 2 ways, if the certificate presented by ISE was signed we tell by Entrust and Entrust part of customer trust root Certification authorities (win 7 laptop) or the intermediate Certification Authorities certificate of ISE is valid for the client. Similarly, the certificate sent by the client that is signed by Verisign is checked by ISE against its certificate store and if ISE has an entry for the certificates Verisign, then the process is finished and the authentication is complete.

    Sometimes for example Chromebook (client) devices do not have pre-loaded CA certificates so you receive a warning when ISE presents this EAP - TLS certificate and you decide whether to accept the certificate as being valid. However, the opposite is mandatory, I mean Chromebook must present a valid signing certificate so ISE can check against its certificate store to complete the process and allow access.

    Hope that answer your question.
