Firepower Automatic Reporting to Email

In this post I'm going to show you how to create automated  reports that will be sent from Fire sight management system to your email periodically

First we have to create a schedule:

Go to system >  Tools > scheduling










  

Click on Add Task, fill the job name, choose recurring and the starting date, select the repeat option and the time you want to the report to start run and the day
then from Report Template (Firepower Report) from the drop list

fill the email address of the status of the job you want to create, and tick the last option as well.




Ok, now lets go and edit the report that we want to get on weekly basis:

you can click on the edit on the Report template or you can go to Overview > reporting > Report Templates

in here you select the report template (Firepower Report: $<Customer Name> in order to edit

then click on Generate




A window will open that you can edit:
1. choose output format
2. the ip address of your exchange server should be already configured and in my case its 10.211.0.30
3.Customer name (this name will be showing in the created Report that you will receive)
4.choose Network that you will get the report for and I will choose all the network (0.0.0.0/0)
5. email options: send email must be selected
6. fill the recipient list, fill the subject and the body of the message
7. click on Close and then the save, don't click on generate unless you want to get report manually.

check below settings for the mentioned steps above:



Usually the time is inherited and I think it will be report for the last hour, which is not good, you can edit all the report by scrolling down and changing the time window as in the picture below:






I hope this was helpful.

you can test the report by making the task run in near time.

Good luck!
