Cisco Adaptive Security Appliance sensor

The Cisco Adaptive Security Appliance (ASA) sensor discovers ASA devices that are used as IP firewall and network address translation appliances.

The Cisco ASA sensor gathers data about ASA devices. In addition, the sensor discovers the following information:

  • All real servers and virtual services running. Real servers are grouped into the real servers group.
  • The virtualIp, realIp, virtualPort, and realPort. The sensor also derives virtual IPs using the virtualIp, realIp, virtualPort, and realPort. Virtual IPs are stored in the Vip table.
