The PIX Logging Architecture [PLA] is a free and open-source project allowing for correlation of Cisco PIX Firewall Traffic and IDS Logs. PIX Log message parsing is performed through the use of the PLA parsing module or PLA Msyslogd module. Centralization of the logs is provided using a MySQL database, supported by a Web-based frontend for Log Viewing, Searching, and Event Management. PIX Logging Architecture is completely coded in the Perl programming language, and uses various Perl modules including Perl::DBI and Perl::CGI.
