Information About Logging Access List Activity
By default, when traffic is denied by an extended ACE or a Webtype ACE, the ASA generates syslog
message 106023 for each denied packet in the following form:
%ASA|PIX-4-106023: Deny protocol src [interface_name:source_address/source_port] dst
interface_name:dest_address/dest_port [type {string}, code {code}] by access_group acl_id
If the ASA is attacked, the number of syslog messages for denied packets can be very large. We
recommend that you instead enable logging using syslog message 106100, which provides statistics for
each ACE and enables you to limit the number of syslog messages produced. Alternatively, you can
disable all logging.
