Devices configured for authentication under ACS

Hi friends,

Would like to know how many devices can be configured for authentication under ACS version 5.6.0.22 (Cisco Secure Network Server 3415).

I'm not able to find the same everywhere.

Concerning

JN

Hello

It depends on the license that you install on the ACS 5.6.

All deployments of 5.6 ACS supports customers AAA 100 000, 10,000 network, 300,000 users and 150 000 host device groups. 5.6 ACS collector server log can handle 2 million records per day and 750 messages per second for stress sent by the various nodes of ACS in the deployment on the server of log collector.

Please visit this link:

http://www.Cisco.com/c/en/us/TD/docs/net_mgmt/cisco_secure_access_contro...

With the Base license, a Cisco Secure ACS 5.6 appliance or virtual machine software can support the deployment of up to 500 devices of access network (DNA) such as routers and switches. These are not authentication, authorization and accounting clients (AAA). The number of network devices is based on the number of unique IP addresses that are configured. The limit of 500-device is not a limit for each individual device or the instance, but a limit of scale that applies to a set of instances of Cisco Secure ACS (primary and secondary instances) that are configured for replication.

The optional add-on of large deployment license allows deployment to support over 500 network devices. Only one major deployment license is required by the deployment because it is shared by all instances.

  • Invalid configuration for the device 3

    Hi all

    I have set up a lab nested with three hosts esxi and two warehouses of data connected with the Microsoft iscsi target server. I know nested vm is not supported, but I'm trying to implement this workshop because I support a real VMware environment and I wish I could test some things before I break anything, so it's important. I get this error when you try to create a virtual machine "invalid configuration for the device 3.  Someone knows how can I know where is the problem?

    Thank you

    I think I can find the answer, it seems that it could be a windows problem causing data corruption. Somehow I created a VM but get all kinds of error trying to create an another VM.  Iscsi targets set up using windows server 2012 and it seems that there is a fix from Microsoft below which deals with corruption LUNs in windows 2012.  I have not yet tested, but this seems to be the right direction. http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/2908783

  • Configuration of the Cisco ACS 5.3 AnyConnect VPN and management of a Cisco ASA 5500.

    We have configured a Cisco ASA 5505 as a VPN endpoint for one of our user groups.  It works, but it works too well.

    We have a group called XXX we need to have access to the Cisco AnyConnect Client.  We have selected this group of our Active Directory and added to our ACS configuration.  We've also added a group called YYY that will manage the ASA. However, this group has no need to access the VPN.

    We added XXX movies for the elements of the policy of access to the network-> authorization profiles.  We also have a profile of YYY.

    She continues to knock on our default Service rule that says allow all.

    We have also created a default network access rule. for this.

    I am at a loss.  I'm sure I missed a checkbox or something.

    Any help would be really appreciated.

    We use Protocol Management GANYMEDE ASA and Ray for VPN access?

    For administration, you must change the device by default admin access strategy and create a permission policy. Even by the way, you can change the network access by default for vpn access and create a respective policy for that too.

    On the SAA, you must configure Ganymede and Ray both as a server group.

    For the administration, you can set Ganymede as an external authentication under orders aaa Server

    AAA-server protocol Ganymede GANYMEDE +.

    Console HTTP authentication AAA GANYMEDE

    Console Telnet AAA authentication RADIUS LOCAL

    authentication AAA ssh console LOCAL GANYMEDE

    Console to enable AAA authentication RADIUS LOCAL

    For VPN, you must set the authentication radius under the tunnel-group.

    I hope this helps.

  • How to separate requests for authentication to GBA 4.2

    Hello

    I have a 4.2 ACS for AAA. Right now I use this server to authenticate users this connection for all my devices cisco (routers, switches, ASAs, APs) and also to authenticate users for remote access VPN to ASA.

    The problem I have is that VPN users residing on another group in ACS are able to authenticate to log to manage network devices and it is a problem of security. I need the vpn users only being able to authenticate to the vpn and not be able to authenticate to connect to network devices.

    Any ideas? is it possible to separate requests for access radius and vpn connection?

    Hi Fernando,

    Yes it is possible to restrict your users only VPN to VPN - ASA. If you want that they do not have telnet/ssh/http access with other devices in the network, then you can go for NAR (network access restriction).

    The only thing you need to know what we are calling-station-id. I think it's an ip address. You can check this activity and reports > past authentication for VPN users.

    Here are the steps:

    GBA > go to the VPN group > Edit > search for NAR > under Ip based NAR > set the action to "DECLINED" > select the devices (routers/switches) you want to deny access to > put * for the port field and address > click on submit + restart.

    Doing this will of users can connect through vpn and unable to do ssh and telnet.

    I have attached the screenshot of the same thing (I did for 6509 switch)

  • Cannot save an ACS secondary for replication of ACS primary 5.2.

    Hello

    I hope someone can help me.  Currently, I have two devices Cisco ACS and both are classified in the PRIMARY.  The first ACS is running version 5.2.0.26 while the second ACS is running version 5.3.0.40.

    My original thought was to install the first ACS and do serve primary and have it replicate its data on the ACS SECONDARY.  Somehow, after installation, the ACS are now listed as PRIMARY.  When I go into secondary ACS under Deployment Options to try to save it in elementary school, I get the following error message:

    "This failure has occurred.  Failed to authenticate with node.  Your changes have not been saved. »

    Even if I try this GBA primary to save it for the secondary ACS, I get the same error message.  I tried all passwords including the credentials of the admin super user, my credentials for the administrator and the credentials provided to SSH in ' GBA and nothing is helping.

    Reading online, I read there was a way to remove an ACS secondary, but I don't have the ability to add this server in the primary for "bump it down" to a secondary antibody hoping to save it for the primary ACS.

    If anyone can give me some pointers, I would greatly appreciate.

    Thank you, and all have a wonderful day.

    THERE

    Yvonne,

    If the identifier is the same then definitely replication does not work, you will not be able to enroll in primary school if the license is the same. The good side is that you have the other license, you only need to install.

    However I have more bad news, the only way to re - install a license file in ACS 5.x uses the CLI command 'acs reset-config', but it will also delete all of the configuration that you have on this server, except the network configuration (IP, gateway, DNS, etc.)

    After entering this command if you are trying to access the GUI, you should not use the name of user and password acsadmin/default, then you will be asked to locate the license file.

    Here is a document with this information where you need it:

  • Problem setting 7606 router for authentication GANYMEDE +.

    Hello community support.

    I have two routers Cisco 7606 I tried in vain to have users authenticated using servers GANYMEDE +. As noted below, I have two servers (1.1.1.1 and 2.2.2.2) accessible via vrf OAM which is accessible from desktop to ssh login. The real IPS and FFS have been changed because it's a router of the company.

    I use two servers to authenticate on a lot other devices Cisco network that they work properly.

    I can reach the vrf servers and the source in use interface. I can also port telnet 49 if the source interface servers and the vrf.

    The server key is hidden, but at the time of configuration, I can see that it is correct.

    The problem is that after confuring for authentication RADIUS, the router always uses the password to enable instead of GANYMEDE. While debug output shows "incorrect password", why not the router authenticates using GANYMEDE? Why is he using the enable password?

    Please review the outputs below and help point out what I may need to change.

    PS: I have tried many other combinations, including obsolete without success, including the method proposed in this page.

  • Registration for authentication and crossing area of Jabber

    Hello

    I used TMS 13.1.2 as authentication source LDAP for VCS-control and VCS Expressway, but noticed, that not all passwords are synchronized correctly in the LDAP H.350 MSDS database, because the user is recorded in two entries. I went to the local authentication, including the database configuration on VCS - C and the local database with the transmission by proxy SIP VSC-E to the VCS - C records. It works fine and I am able to make calls.

    I created the search on VCS highway rules to replace all aliases MCU to an auto attendant external special. Stored locally on the VCS-E endpoint points are allowed to call internal aliases. I tried to do the same for the Jabber Clients, which is recorded in the crossing area of the VCS - C. This works as expected, because the Jabber Clients are not enrolled in a local area and SIP GUEST is not in dispute.

    I expect that all the Jabber client message will be challenged by the VCSE, but this isn't the case. Accordingly, the guest of the SIP protocol is treated as an external user and not an intern.

    Is it possible to allow the Jabber Clients to be authenticated on the VCS-E, so a search rule can aply?

    Thanks for your help!

    You get the 'Preparation device' key for your VCS-E so its free.

    It may require a valid service contract.

    I have the provisioning again running on a cluster of VCS - E in my lab, works very well.

    In ancient times that the deployment has not officially supported, it was running great in any case :-)

    Did not check if its now a deployment with support.

    I don't know enough about your deployment to say what would be the best for you.

    There will be some scenarios where not all features can be deployed together for some reason any.

    Maybe someone can help you by looking at how implementation could be done better.

    If you have authentication and integration of ads, that you need to connect

    the VCS-E announced as well. Endpoints (at least for now) is not auth via AD, but you could

    use a database of h.350 (could also be hosted with AD) or the local authentication database.

    Now, which is also spread by TMS, could be an answer to your question as well.

  • NPS Windows Help for authentication of aaa for Cisco router - is it safe?

    I am very confused about how all this works and was hoping someone could help me.

    I followed a bunch of tutorials online for authentication RADIUS of installation on a Cisco router and he did to a NPS Windows Server. Now I can ssh into the router my AD account.

    Now that I got it to work, I go to the settings to make sure everything is secure.

    On my router, the config is pretty simple:

    aaa new-modelaaa group server radius WINDOWS_NPSserver-private 123.123.123.123 auth-port 1812 acct-port 1813 key mykeyaaa authentication login default local group WINDOWS_NPS
    
    ip domain-name MyDomcrypto key generate rsa
    
    (under vty and console)# login authentication default
    On the NPS Windows:
    • I created a new RADIUS client for the router.
    • Created a secret shared and specified Cisco as the name of the seller.
    • Created a new strategy of network with my desired conditions.
    • And now the frame of the configuration of the network policy that worries me:
    
    
    So initially I thought my AD credentials were being sent over the wire in plain text, but I did a capture and saw this:
    
    
    
    How is my password being encrypted and how strong is the encryption?
    
    Another thing is how can I configure aaa authentication with mschapv2? The documentation I saw for mschapv2 uses the "ppp authentication ms-chap-v2" command, but I'm not using ppp I'm using aaa with a radius server.
     
    

    Hello

    RADIUS encrypts the password, but sends the username in clear. GANYMEDE encrypts the user name and password.

    You can find the encryption used by RADIUS in the RFC scheme:

    https://Tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2865#page-27

    MS-Chap-V2 is used for the authentication of users such as the remote access and vpn, not management switch

    Please note that the AAA client is a non-cisco device.

    Any suggestions?

    It seems that you run ACS 4.x. You are facing this problem because the key is set on the excessive rides of the level (Group of devices network XYZ in your case) NDG key at the level of the AAA client.  Please make sure that you don't have different secret key on the client inside the NDG AAA and on the NDG himself.

    Not affected is working because it has no key defined in the NDG.

    This is the second HP printer that I am trying to set up makes the same "thing".  I thought the first was defective, so I traded for a different printer.  It has a display of control, so I KNOW it's on the network.  And I KNOW my computer is on the network, or I wouldn't be able to write this.

    But they refuse to talk to each other.  SO frustrating.  I'm willing to give up HP.

    Found the problem.  HP printers do not support Wifi AC.  It would have been nice to know before I wasted 4 hours on 2 printers...

  • LAPN300 - the best configuration for 3 access points, while using the same SSID

    Hi all

    What is the best configuration for 3 x LAPN300 located in various places around my house of 3 floors, access points if I want just one SSID?

    I did some initial research which suggests that I can use the same SSID on all three, as long as they are on different channels. 1, 6 and 11 for example. In theory, then, as I wander around the House the client machine must auto swap to the AP with the signal stronger.

    What do you think? What is the best way or do, or could suggest you something else?

    As an aside... If I decided to create a second SSID for the guests at home, I would also want to add wireless isolation to this SSID. How would that be managing the DHCP server on the local network? How would be asked to connect to the SSID has never get an IP if they have been isolated from other clients on the local network?  Besides, how they see the router? The ANNUAL lets you specify exceptions to this isolation for this feature?  Alternatively, as I suspect, is the right isolation feature isolate them from other WLAN, not the LAN clients customers?

    I did some testing and configuration of the AP with the same SSID and security will do what you want. Don't worry about setting the channel because the auto channel setting works with these devices and automatically adjusts the spacing between the appropriate channels.

    Recommendation of the VPN_user is what you need if you want to isolate the SSID comments from the rest of your network clients.

    Isolation of SSID of the AP will guard only wireless devices to communicate with each other on the same SSID on which it is enabled.
