Are you using ADM?
m
We make use of ADM service, but without any licenses. But I just found it in /var/log/ns.log
Copy code
root@ns01# cat /var/log/ns.log | grep -i "AAA LOGIN_FAILED"

k
yeah... you should see it in the logs as well as in ADM
failed logon generates an SNMP trap which is not a license-required feature
m
Where in the menu is that hidden?
k
wouldn't look for this via GUI, rather CLI -> shell
tail -f /var/log/ns.log | grep -i LOGIN_FAILED
m
I see, that's similar to what I did, see the first line of the code above. Thank you very much!
r
Germany? 5.182.87.69
I normally find these to be some monitoring system. Probably like PRTG doing an SSH check in to look at free disk space. 🙂
m
Germany.
At least for now, I don't recognize that IP.
c
Gateway insight on ADM is really good will show you all the info on the failed authentication such as username used failure reason client IP and country ect
d
I wouldn't think that's a monitoring solution, generally those would show as an internal IP, these are external so unless your monitoring solution is set up incorrectly and routing out to the internet and back again, but then you'd likely recognise the IP anyway. Treat that with suspicion and set that up to be dropped by your firewall. If it's monitoring then someone will complain soon enough.
k
https://www.brightcloud.com/tools/url-ip-lookup.php puts that IP (5.182.87.69) in to Moscow...
m
@c4rm0 Gateway Insights is a licensed feature, is it?
c
yeah you enable it on a Vserver (NS GW Vserver) and you have to license the Vservers within ADM. With the Citrix cloud ADM service they give you two free Vservers you can license 🙂

k
But the log data is for free... except they're dropping syslog from the service in January apparently
c
yeah i seen they are dropping syslog 😞 like everything cloud it seems good at first but then the costs go up and up
k
I sort of understand it though, ADM was never supposed to be an audit system. I've tried to steer our customers to use a proper SIEM system instead. However, it will be interesting to see how this aligns with the Analytics portfolio. I'm in hopes they'll fill in the blanks with that product.
