Ensure the redundancy of the ACS

Salvation;

What happens if my ACS only breaks down? ACS is active on my access switches.

What deployment scenario are we talking about here? For example, with 802.1 X deployments there a function (called inaccessible Authentication Bypass) that allows you to access a VLAN specific in the scenario where connectivity to the ACS server is compromised. Is that something can help you?

  • Two questions about the ACS 5.1: password aging and allowing multiple disabled accounts

    Hello

    I test in ACS 5.1 password aging, and I discovered that you can have only one global setting for the password for all the accounts internal life. Is it possible to exclude some internal accounts of this global password aging policy? I would like to have number of accounts, passwords should not be aged at all...

    Second question: when I was testing password aging, I set myself to life of password in 4 days with warning after 2 days. All accounts in my test of the ACS configuration are now disabled, because 4 days has passed when I changed it. Is there a possibility to allow multiple accouns at once, or do I have to activate 500 internal accounts manually, one by one?

    Thanks in advance

    WM

    I'm not aware of any way to score internal as users with passwords as enver expire. This is done for admins ensure there is always an admin who can access the system

    In order to change the multiple/all documents for internal users, the following approach can be taken:

    1. Go to the list of internal users and press "Export" then 'Start export' and 'Save file' export user records to a csv file
    2. Edit the file. In the title 'active' column replace 'FALSE' to 'TRUE' for all records. Save the updated file
    3. To the page that lists internal users, tap "File Options", select "Update", and then click next to access the section "Import a file" Wizard. Select the file saved in step 2) and tap on finish

    Afetr imort is completed, all records of internal user should now display "Enabled".

    You have activated the web interface of migration? Check that you have configured the computer source of Cisco Secure ACS 5.1/5.2 with a unique IP address. The migration tool may fail during the migration if each interface has multiple IP address aliases.

  • Is there a problem with accounting and 4.1 of the ACS

    Good day to all,

    I just installed a new server with ACS 4.1.

    This new installation 4.1 ACS is approved, I will retire my old server that ACS 3.1.

    At this point, the only problem I have with ACS 4.1 is with the accounting.

    For example:

    I used a test-router with all the necessary config pointing to my old 3.1 ACS. Everything works fine (authentication and accounting). If I enter a command on the router test it's journal on GBA 3.1.

    Now, if I change the test-router to point to the new 4.1 ACS, the ACS 4.1 will authenticate the router test correctly, but won't save any command that I enter the router test. I did a shot between the test-router and 4.1 of the ACS and the router test sends accounting statement ACS 4.1.

    There are many different configuration of ACS 3.1 4.1, but as far as I can see the config on the two ACS is as similar as possible.

    Y at - there anyone out there who could do 4.1 ACS to process accounting properly?

    Any idea will help you.

    Thank you

    Frank

    Here is my config:

    AAA new-model

    AAA authentication login default group Ganymede + local

    connection of AAA No.-AUTH authentication no

    AAA authorization exec default group Ganymede + local

    AAA authorization commands start-stop Group 1 Ganymede +.

    AAA authorization commands start-stop group 15 Ganymede +.

    AAA accounting exec default start-stop Ganymede group.

    orders accounting AAA 1 by default start-stop Ganymede group.

    AAA accounting command 15 by default start-stop Ganymede group

    !

    192.168.100.16 host key radius-server *.

    (the above command is the only command I change to point the finger 3.1 ACS or ACS 4.1)

  • The ACS upgrade to 3.2

    Greetings,

    By opting for the ACS 3.2, all my settings and the securities will remain the same? If this isn't the case, I have a router connected to the server and I will get locked. I heard there is a specific order for the removal of the lines to avoid of locking me. Is this true?

  • Download the ACS software... ?

    I don't know about the 90-day trial; However, is there a way to download a full version for windows to the Cisco site. I am able to download the software so the isn't a problem. I don't see anywhere to download a full version and not only test 90 days?

    TKS-

    You must purchase the software to full version. It is only available on CD. When you buy the ACS software, it comes with a device (ACS1111). I do not see the neccessity or the advantage of Cisco made available for download on their website the version full of GBA.

  • The ACS authentication

    We have ACS running without any problem. We have a special VLAN to a public kiosk that clients can use to surf the internet. The kiosk is wireless and is configured for automatic connection with a specific account. The access point uses the vlan 1 and vlan 40 terminal wireless. When the kiosk machine authenticates to ACS running on our domain controller (who resides on the vlan 10)-is the kiosk machine communicates with the domain controller or the kiosk machine communicates with the access point, which, in turn, communicates with the ACS server? I would like to block 40 access vlan in the vlan 10 but if the kiosk machine must communicate with the domain controller, I don't think I can. Any help is appreciated. Thank you.

    Unreliable kiosk machine only communicates with the AP. The AP will send credentials on the ACS server, which in turn, will try to authenticate them on the Windows domain controller.

    Hello

    I would like to configure Ganymede + aaa Catalyst 6500 Cisco application control engine module. In the configuration guide for ACE it is advice that you need to configure additional parameters to be returned by the RADIUS server (shell:= ...) ) for authorization of virtual context Cisco ACE.

  • Administrator rights to the ACS using Active Directory groups

    Good afternoon

    We must be able to use administrative accounts for our device ACS who reside in an Active Directory group, if possible.  If this is not possible, what other safer options would we be able to use (RADIUS authentication or authentication RSA 2)?

    Thanks in advance

    You can only use the locally stored accounts within the ACS.

  • Issue of operability of the ACS as RADIUS with ASA 5.0?

    Hello

    I'm trying my VPN to get authenticated user with RADIUS (ACS 5.0). and VPN users database is created in AD. Now when I am trying to connect through the Cisco VPN client, I am unable to do so. Infact, I get an error message (through debugging at the level of the SAA for aaa and isakmp) my RADIUS server is DOWN.

    Please let me know is there any compatibility issue with ACS 5.0 on it because everything was working fine on my version 4.2 of the ACS.

    Concerning

    Ritesh

    Ritesh,

    Yes, there is a lack of ACS 5.0 with vpn authentication.

    When you try to connect with the VPN client. you will not see any hits in the follow-up and the views.
    The ASDM logs: you'll see radius server is not accessible.
    Debugs you show RADIUS period.
    This will work with Ganymede.

    Access policy rule was does not. Also, could not use RADIUS as hit CSCsy17858

    http://cdetsweb-PRD.Cisco.com/apps/goto?identifier=CSCsy17858>; Used Ganymede + instead of RADIUS.

    If you want to use the RADIUS then you need to upgrade your version of acs to 5.1

    You can down load patch 9 (5-0-0-21 - 9.tar.gpg) and ADE-OS (ACS_5.0.0.21_ADE_OS_1.2_upgrade.tar.gpg) from the below path:

    Go to Cisco.com > support > download software > Security > Cisco Secure Access Control System 5.0 > Secure Access Control System Software 5.0.0.21 >
