There are times that require logging to be enabled an more imortantly there are times where you may want to see those logs real time and have the option to save them to a file to be sent to another person.

Getting syslogs from the ASA5505 or 5510 :

Access the Cisco ASA Firewall via telnet/ssh then:

conf t
logg mon 7
logg on
term mon

Syslogs would start generating on screen.

You can capture the screen output in a text file.

To stop syslogs from being generated and displayed on the screen in the telnet or SSH sesion :

term no mon
