Configuring Csmars to Integrate with CSManager
CS-Manager is added to CS-MARS in much the same way as any other security or network device is added. You treat CS-Manager as security software running on a host. This means, from within CS-MARS, you first add the server that it is running on, and then you add CS-Manager as software running on that server.
From any screen in MARS, click the ADMIN tab, and then click on Security and Monitor Devices. Click the Add button, and select Add SW security apps on new host or Add SW security apps on existing host if that server is already defined in MARS.
As shown in Figure 8-4, enter the device name and IP addresses, including the interface IP address and network mask. Then click the Next button.

You should now be on the screen shown in Figure 8-5, where you can select the applications running on the server. From the Select application drop-down list, select Cisco Security Manager ANY; then click the Add button and click the Done button.

Next, you should be at a screen that asks for credentials for communicating with CS-Manager (see Figure 8-6). Enter the username and password that MARS should use. If CS-Manager is using an alternate TCP port for communications, enter it here also. When finished, click the Test Connectivity button. If you do not receive an error, click the Done button. If you do receive an error, click the View Error button to see what the problem might be.

The most common errors you're likely to see are incorrectly entered usernames and passwords. Remember that the login name and password are case sensitive. In addition, remember that CS-MARS communicates with CS-Manager using HTTPS over TCP port 443, by default. You might need to verify that a firewall or router access control list (ACL) isn't blocking communications between the two systems.
You should next be back at the Reporting Applications screen, as shown in Figure 8-7. Click the Done button and then the Activate button. CS-MARS is now configured to communicate with Cisco Security Manager.
