CISCO IPS
Sawmill is a Cisco IPS log analyzer (it also supports the 1021 other log formats listed to the left).
It can process log files
in Cisco IPS format, and generate dynamic statistics from them,
analyzing and reporting events.
Sawmill can parse Cisco IPS logs, import them into a MySQL, Microsoft SQL Server, or Oracle database (or its own built-in database),
aggregate them, and generate dynamically filtered reports, all through a web interface.
Sawmill can perform Cisco IPS log analysis on any platform, including Windows, Linux, FreeBSD, OpenBSD, Mac OS, Solaris, other UNIX, and others.
