I'm setting up Splunk for Cisco IPS for the first time. It looks like it's able to connect, but seems to not be able to retrieve events.
sdee_get.log:

The IDS model is ASA_SSM-10.
Suggestions?
Just stop the script and rm the *.run files in the apps var/run directory. Then start it again. The subscription id refers to some internal mechanism that supposedly helps the ips to remember which events you already fetched..
how do you "delete your x.x.x.x.run file(s)"? What subscription ID is this referring too?
This error happens when the subscription id for some reason is no longer valid on the device end. You need to delete your x.x.x.x.run file(s) and allow the script to attempt to open a new session without an existing subscription id.
