Understanding Legacy Data Structures

This appendix contains information about data structures supported by eStreamer at previous versions of Firepower System products.

If your client uses event stream requests with bits set to request data in older version formats, you can use the information in this appendix to identify the data structures of the data messages you receive.

Note that prior to version 5.0, separate detection engines were assigned IDs. For version 5.0, devices are assigned IDs. Based on the version, data structures reflect this.

Noteblank.gif This appendix describes only data structures from version 4.9 or later of the Firepower System. If you require documentation for structures from earlier data structure versions, contact Cisco Customer Support.


See the following sections for more information:

Legacy Intrusion Data Structures

Intrusion Event (IPv4) Record 5.0.x - 5.1

The fields in the intrusion event (IPv4) record are shaded in the following graphic. The record type is 207.

You request intrusion event records by setting the intrusion event flag or the extended requests flag in the request message. See Request Flags and Submitting Extended Requests.

For version 5.0.x - 5.1 intrusion events, the event ID, the managed device ID, and the event second form a unique identifier.

Intrusion Impact Alert Data

The Intrusion Impact Alert event contains information about impact events. It is transmitted when an intrusion event is compared to the system network map data and the impact is determined. It uses the standard record header with a record type of 9, followed by an Intrusion Impact Alert data block with a data block type of 20 in the series 1 group of blocks. (The Impact Alert data block is a type of series 1 data block. For more information about series 1 data blocks, see Understanding Discovery (Series 1) Blocks.)

You can request that eStreamer only transmit intrusion impact events by setting bit 5 in the Flags field of the request message. See Event Stream Request Message Format for more information about request messages. Version 1 of these alerts only handles IPv4. Version 2, introduced in 5.3, handles IPv6 events in addition to IPv4.

Malware Event Data Block 5.3

The eStreamer service uses the malware event data block to store information on malware events. These events contain information on malware detected or quarantined within a cloud, the detection method, and hosts and users affected by the malware. The malware event data block has a block type of 35 in the series 2 group of blocks. You request the event as part of the malware event record by setting the malware event flag—bit 30 in the request flags field—in the request message with an event version of 4 and an event code of 101.

Malware Event Data Block 5.4.x

The eStreamer service uses the malware event data block to store information on malware events. These events contain information on malware detected or quarantined within a cloud, the detection method, and hosts and users affected by the malware. The malware event data block has a block type of 47 in the series 2 group of blocks. It supersedes block 44 and is superseded by block. Fields for SSL and file archive support have been added.

You request the event as part of the malware event record by setting the malware event flag—bit 30 in the request flags field—in the request message with an event version of 6 and an event code of 101.

The following graphic shows the structure of the malware event data block:

Legacy Discovery Data Structures

Legacy Discovery Event Header

Discovery Event Header 5.0 - 5.1.1.x

Discovery and connection event messages contain a discovery event header. It conveys the type and subtype of the event, the time the event occurred, the device on which the event occurred, and the structure of the event data in the message. This header is followed by the actual host discovery, user, or connection event data. The structures associated with the different event type/subtype values are described in Host Discovery Structures by Event Type.

The event type and event subtype fields of the discovery event header identify the structure of the transmitted event message. Once the structure of the event data block is determined, your program can parse the message appropriately.
