In Cisco firewall logs, the %ASA-1-106021 part of the log entry is a Mnemonic message. Here's the breakdown: %ASA: Indicates the type of device, which in this case is a Cisco ASA (Adaptive Security Appliance) firewall. 1: Denotes the severity level of the message (1 is for emergencies). 106021: This is the specific log message code that corresponds to a predefined event or action in the firewall. So, %ASA-1-106021 represents a specific message type or mnemonic that details the nature of the event or action being logged.
