Renew the certificate in Cisco ACS for PEAP authentication

Hi, we installed in laptops wireless customer a certificate created by Cisco ACS to authenticate, but its about to expire.

How can I do to renew the certificate whithout affecting users.

(1) Yes, we can generate a new cert but install the latter.

(2) install generated new cert on the client.

(3) install the new cert in ACS.

Good plan and will probably work.

Kind regards

    Hi Tarek,

    There are a number of things at play here. First to the top, we will place terminology. What you ask the subject isn't a digital signature, but rather a digital ID. Think of this as similar to the world where the digital ID is equivalent to a pen and paper is used to create the digital signature, just like the feather is used to create the wet ink signature.

    What you need to do is called a key roll on, where you give up the public key to prolong his life. The big question is how can you resign from the public key, and the answer is that you need the original certificate signature request (CSR in geek speak). Of course you don't have the CSR because you don't get one when you use Acrobat/Reader to generate a self-signed digital ID. Probably, this raises the question, what is a self-signed digital ID? A start of the process of generation and build a digital ID initially generate you the key private and public key. However, there is a bit of textual information that is also packed with the public key, such as your name, address (postal or e-mail). The public key and text information is packaged in the CSR, so you have the private key and CSR sitting there separately. The next step is to send the CSR to the issuer and to sign with his private key. At this point the issuer name, validity period, serial number and other information are package upward in the public key certificate file, which, incidentally, also contains the signature itself. Now you've got a signed with the corresponding private key, public key certificate sitting on your computer. If you take the two pieces and combine in a single file, you end up with a digital ID.

    The thing is, when Acrobat/Reader generates a digital ID, it uses the private key to sign the CSR, so the digital ID that has ensued is known as "Self-signed" in the part of the public key of the file certificate has been signed by its own private key rather than be signed by a CA issuing. CSR is removed during this operation and you done with just a digital ID in self with a life expectancy of 5 years. The whole process is made as simple as possible for the end user, this is why there is no CSR that flying over so that they treat.

    All that being said, your only option is to use Acrobat or Reader to create a new self-signed digital ID and start using that replaces the expired. You try to use Microsoft CAPI (Cryptographic Application Program Interface) to send the CSR to a CA to have them sign the CSR and return a signed public key certificate file, but I'm sure you guessed now, you do not the CSR to be sent, so MS-CAPI returns the error message you posted in red font. He can't really say that, but that's what it means.

    I hope this helps.

  • Renew the certificate of identity on Cisco ASA 5505, do I have to renew all user certificates?

    n00b questions.

    I have to renew my SSL certificate of identity soon on my Cisco ASA 5505.  I'll have to renew all my certificates for client on their devices, so they can establish a vpn tunnel?

    Hi dsartoros,

    If you encounter a self signed (generated locally) identity certificate renewed, then you will need to download this certificate on the clients so that they can connect without getting "untrusted server certificate error".

    If you renew a certificate issued by a 3rd party CA (sending of CSR to CA) and certificate, then you will not need to make any changes on the client as they already trust the certification authority that issues the certificate first root.

    Kind regards

  • Not use 5.4 ACS for TLS authentication with a certificate not in the string

    Hi all

    I have installed ACS 5.4 and several wireless environments.

    EAP - TLS is used to authenticate users of our area (of self-signed cetificates)

    Then use PEAP and need for a real external cert... (Signed by Terena)

    The problem is that I can use a single certificate for authentication EAP on ACS, and I need them both to work.

    I see only 2 options:

    1 configure the TLS network to authenticate without going through the ACS cert in the string (use the real one)

    2. set up somehow to use two certificates, one for each service.

    Please help, im desperate.

    Thank you!

    Naor

    You can't have several certificates of server/identity on ACS for EAP flavours. As a best practice, get the third-party certificate and check to associate the certificate with the EAP protocols that use SSL/TLS tunneling: EAP - TLS, PEAP and EAP-FAST.

    Try another browser like Hussam suggested and let us know the results.

    I updated FireFox to 15.0.1 and now I am not able to manipulate many parameters with ACS 5.3
    Version of this browser is extremely stupid with ACS 5.x, but it shows not all message boxes. It just does not display the page when you click on the link.

    If different browsers show the same question, I would say that you restart the machine (physical or virtual) completely and try again.

    It is also best to upgrade to the latest patch, if this is not already the case.

  • Renew the certificate - Cisco VPN (the router)

    Hello!

    I have to renew my certificate and I need to do this, generate a new CSR.

    My doubt is if I generate a new CSR my current certificate will be lost or not.

    The command I use to generate a new CSR is:

    # crypto ca enroll XXX

    Thank you.

    Hi Anderson,

    If you create the CSR in a different trustpoint, you will not lose the current certificate.

  • 5.4 double certificate option Cisco ACS

    Hello Experts

    I wonder if anyone knows if I can get two certificates on my Cisco ACS 5.4 server. The documentation says I can have it as long they have different 'from' and 'to' dates with a same name CN. However, this is a production server and wanted to if sure before I make changes. I currently have a certificate installed and everything works well but need to add a second for migration purposes.

    Hovsep Armeni
    LAN, UK

    A certificate can be linked to these two services (HTTP and EAP), however, each service can only be associated with a single certificate. Thus, for example, you cannot have two certificates that are related to the EAP process.

  • With the help of Cisco ACS 5.2 (GANYMEDE +) with other than Cisco devices

    Hi all

    I was hoping that someone could help me with what might be a silly question. I'm trying to implement a solution whereby an operator can control all their nodes (other than Cisco) network via GANYMEDE + involved nodes are

    Juniper M10i running Junos 9.2, M120

    M320 running Junos 8.5 Juniper

    Extremes of BD8810 and BD8806 running 12.4.1.17 XOS

    3804 Alpine extreme Extremeware 7.8.3.5 running

    My question is, can I use Cisco ACS 5.2 (or 4.2) to authenticate using GANYMEDE + to these other than Cisco devices. Has anyone else done this or I have to use RADIUS? If someone has done this are problems of interoperability with Cisco CS and Junos or XOS extreme. Thank you

    / John

    John,

    We have a very large deployment of Juniper (T-series, series MX, etc.). We use Cisco ACS and GANYMEDE to manage these devices. The configuration of the ACS is fairly simple. You'll want to create users to connect and match them to the classes on your JUNOS routers. Here is an example:

    set system login user uid of engineering 2000
    Set system login user engineering genius-class class
    set the connection user uid to NOC 2001 System
    Set system login user AC AC-class class

    define the system connection Engineering-class idle-timeout 15
    define a connection system class engineering-class permissions all
    define the system connection AC-class idle-timeout 15
    define the connection class AC system class view permissions
    Set connection AC-class permissions see the system configuration

    We use two classes of genius and NOC. One is defined as a read / write and the second read-only. This is in turn then mapped in ACS (in our case version 4.2) by user or group (preferred). First, you change the configuration of the interface and add a Ganymede junos-exec service and do not enter the Protocol field. Then, you change the attributes of the user group. I've attached screenshots for both on this subject.

    Hope this helps.

  • The upgrade to Cisco ACS SE and Remote Agent

    Hello

    Currently we are upgrading the PDC to Windows Server 2008, Standard Edition R2.

    I am little confused with information available for upgrade scenarios. Appearing on the current working versions.

    Cisco ACS SE - version 4.1 Build 23 5 Patch 1

    Cisco ACS Remote Agent version 4.2 (0.124)

    The new operating system will work on 64-bit, I think that the current ACE SE and the remote agent can / must be upgraded.

    My existing versions, give the possible scenarios of upgrade available for me. After that upgraded SE and Remote Agent should work for the 64 bit OS.

    Thanks in advance!

    Yes, it is not possible to upgrade the ACS ACS 5.2 existing to level 4.1. They are two different boxes run on a different platform.

    Unfortunately ACS 4.x does not support windows 2008 r2.

    5.2 ACS is the only option left, and you will need to buy a new box of seprate with the new licnese for this.

  • Cisco ACS 5.2 authentication and authorization processes

    I am designing a network and I asked me a few questions that I don't know how respond to those so I thought putting it in the forum to see if I can get help.

    First, thank you very much for reading this post and thank you if you can add comments to help out me.

    installation program:

    Two ACS on each center data in Server and application to the switches by dc + hybrid mode the Ganymede and fold to the other on the failure scenario.

    ACS - version 5.2 planning upgrade to 5.8, if she is stable.

    Result of the will

    If users fails authentication AD then it should be rejected.

    If defective AD on ACS and ACS needs to check the other ACS and other ACS has connection AD, then it should demand more diver ACS...

    I'm sure it is not possible, but that it was the main application... I disputed so now the new request

    If AD fails ACS should fall back to the local database. If the local database is not authenticte then it should allow to switch to interrogate the same request of ACS secondary rather then to reject the application.

    Litt: local database is reserved for the network admin but maybe some contractor need to access switches and other devices and they will have the entry in listing so if fails AD, they can always authenticates agaist DC2 AD via DC2 ACS.

    I think to set up

    Authentication rule 1 - authenticate again AD,

    If authentication failed - Reject

    If usernot has been found - reject

    If the process failed - continue

    This should take by default which will be the internal database.

    If authentication failed - Reject

    If the user has not found - drop

    If the process failed - drop

    This should give no answer to switch and then switch should try the second radius server in the list...

    Please someone explain this flow chart for me... and it's correct assumptions...

    I would like to know if there are a few good diagram that I can refer to see the whole process and can use in my presentation...

    Thank you very much for reading and you answer it...

    Hello

    I'm not sure I get your question, but I will try to answer in the way that I understood.

    If you send a drop as a result, this means that ACS deposited the request, causing the AAA client to try again another failure on toward another AAA server.

    A tree had fallen on the community a few years ago:

  • How to open the port 161 on the ASA and Cisco switches for monitoring of BB

    The newspaper shows BB cannot connect to all ports of the switch 161, and I even can't telnet to 161 XXX_17f for example.

    My switches are Cisco C3550, C2950, etc. of the ASA.

    Mon 7 Nov 15:43:03 2011 bbnet cannot connect to the server XXX_17f on port 161

    Mon 7 Nov 15:43:03 2011 bbnet can't connect to XXX server on port 161

    Thank you

    Anson

    no need to adjust anything in bb-hosts. If you have added setings in bb-hosts, delete them. Also remove associated in bbvar/logs log files. (otherwise, you'll have purple when you delete the SNMP, trap tags bb-hosts)

    A column of trap will be that no show until the device sends a trap to BB.

  • The upgrade to Cisco ACS

    Hello.

    I would like to upgrade our current ACS NT Terminalserver edition server to a Win2000 server. Since this upgrade requires a fresh installation (since a direct upgrade from NT 4 TS to w2k is not the best thing to do). My question is, do I have to do to ensure that I can keep my user database active? Is replication the answer? And replication will make a copy of all the different users/groups/routers etc etc. In other words, I'll be able to do this upgrade without too much trouble?

    I speak here of a replication of the database, do not configure replication between servers ACS.
