I have a couple of ACS 5.2 configured as active and backup and I am doing dot 1x authentication using these servers . I have configured the switch with the bellow configuration.
radius-server host 10.0.10.15 auth-port 1645 acct-port 1646
radius-server host 10.0.10.16 auth-port 1645 acct-port 1646
radius-server key 7 aaaaaaaaaaaaaa
please help to understand what will happen in switch
1) in case of primary failure
2)in case if primary returns alive .
I have a question about the number of Cisco licenses needed in two cases for ACS 5.3 Virtual Machine.One primary + One secondary : Just one license for all or one license for the primary + another one for the secondary ?One primary + several secondaries : Just one license for all or one license for the primary + just one license for all the secondaries ?

View 3 Replies View RelatedToday I ran a failover test between our primary and secondary ACS systems (ran 'acs stop' on the primary) and in the process decided to promote the secondary while I had the primary down. All was fine until I brought the primary back up and tried to re-register the secondary to it. I get the following error message: I went into System Administration >Operations >Distributed System Management on each and it showed the other device as deregestered, tried to promote from there but it failed too, so I deleted them and tried to register the secondary again. After that didn't work I tried rebooting both but that didn't work either. I know the user/pass I'm using is good and I've tried using both the IP address and the hostname.

Cisco ACS VERSION INFORMATION-----------------------------Version : 5.3.0.40.5Internal Build ID : B.839Patches :5-3-0-40-5
I'm using ACS 5.4p2 within distributed systems: one primary and one secondary instance.For now, primary instance is acting as Log Collector server and I can see any AAA audit logs.
When the primary instance fails I can authenticate successfully using the secondary instance.However, when primary instance comes back, I'm not able to see any audit logs operated by secondary.
IP address of Primary had to be changed, to respond to a hardware failure of TACACS server with IP in many device configs.
Now the Secondary fails to respond to repeated "Deregister from Primary" requests, even after reload - apparently because it cannot reach the Primary at its old IP address.
Requesting Deregister in GUI generates pop-up that says, "This operation will deregister this ACS Instance from the Primary Instance. Management applications on this ACS instance will be restarted and you will be required to login again. After performing this operation

View 2 Replies View RelatedWe have 4 ACS 5.3 Servers connected as Primary and Secondary Servers.We use a "RSA SecurID Token Servers" External userdatabase for authentications and are able to sucessfully authenticate (vpn-)users when the requests are send from the primary ACS Server.As soon as a secondary ACS server sends the request to the RSA server the request fails. "Node verification failes"
On the RSA Authentication Manager 6.1 Server, we have created a Agent-host wich contains the 3 secondary nodes (FQDN and IP's). The "sdconf.rec" file has been installed on theprimary ACS Server and are automatically (so it looks like) replicated to all ACS Servers.Still none of the secondary server are able to authenticate the users agains the RSA server.
I am using CiscoSecure ACS v4.2 appliance, in there any way that RADIUS logs upload to FTP server because it has limitation to store RADIUS logs.

View 1 Replies View RelatedACS 4.2 and remote agent was working properly two months before. But in past two months we are facing weird issue in RA server.For Somedays we are missing logs from both ACS and RA server. Once we notice this we use to restart the services in ACS to give workaround. But due to this we loose our daily logs intermittently and facing risk in without having logs.This is not like communication between ACS and RA is not at all happening. It happens properly for a week or month, but again it is going bad without any config change. CSAgent.ini file is properly configured.Full version is 4.2.1.15 and patch is 10 in acs and ra.ACS and Remote Agent Major and Patch version are same.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have been having problems when trying to host servers on games, etc.I have 2 routers. A modem router, which is a Thomson router. That is the main one. It has a wire connecting from it, to a D-Link router that is near my Computer, and my brother's one. Then that D-Link router has 2 wires from each port, to mine, and my brother's computer.So, I am trying to host games.I didn't connect to the Thomson one, which is also wireless. I am connected to the wired one (D-Link). When I try to host while connected to it, my brother, and other people can't find the server. My brother and me can find it on LAN, but not Internet.But when I disconnect from the Wired, and connect to the Thomson wireless one, and then when I host, I can find it on INTERNET. Even my brother can. He can connect to it perfectly.
I do not want to connect to the wireless, because then it will cause lag spikes every 5 minutes.So, when I disconnect from the wireless, and connect to the wire, I went into the CMD, and typed in ipconfig. I found out that the Default Gteway is the D-Link IP.When I connect to the wireless, and disconnect the wired, I went into CMD, and then the Default Gateway is the Thomson one, which is the main router.So what I want to do, is use the D-Link router, and that router will have the same IP as my thomson one, so that I can host perfectly with no lag spikes, and using a wired connection.
We are trying to configure vrf aware GET VPN with COOP having primary and secondary key servers and also 3 GM routers. All GM routers we use are Cisco 888 and Key servers we use cisco 2911 routers. All GMs crypto maps have been applied into Vlan interface as there's no L3 interface on 888 routers.
Always members can form a tunnel with primary KS, we have configured redundancy with secondary key server and listed on each GM primary and secondary KS on GDOI group.
The issue we facing is that whenever we shutdown the primary or secondary servers the tunnel is not forming with available KS unless otherwise we mannually clear the crypto session. In another way when primary KS down it doest not fall back to secondary KS and no GM get registered. We have already played with all the timers such as DPD, SA lifetimes, GDOI rekey lifetime etc and also exchanging the keys (import/export) with KS and COOPs but there's no luck. We could see the following message was seen on both KS.
[code] 192.168.1.3 is the primary KS and 192.168.1.6 is the secondary KS.I captured attached debug output from 1 GM and secondary KS while I shutdonw the primary KS and also attached is our senario we were trying get work.
Also attached is the show output from both KSs when it form a tunnel with GM.
I have more than 5000 sq. ft home and have some dead places other end of the house. Now I am looking for Range Extender/Repeater to boost signal. My primary wireless router is Motorola Surfboard SBG6580 and Secondary Linksys E3000 (planning to update firmware to DD-WRT). So I wanted something such that I can roam between the two routers without switching SSID (use single SSID name for primary and secondary DD-WRT routers) and connect automatically to whichever the best signal (or) strength router. In work place we have same thing like that single wireless SSID name which automatically connect wireless SSID from one end to another end of the building.
View 1 Replies View RelatedWe have 2 ASA 5505s in a data center at a remote site.
Whilst troubleshooting another issue I noticed the below. I don't know much about fail over but this would suggest that the secondary ASA is active and the primary ASA is on standby.
if the primary is "active" then how come the secondary is the active ASA? I would have thought that once the primary ASA became active this would assume the "main" role".
[Code] .....
Management purchased a HA package from Cisco consisting of 2 5508's with pre installed 500 users license on the Primary WLC and none on the secondary WLC. We have 5508's already so I am familiar with setting them up and so forth. What I am not familiar with is setting them up using HA for failover and license sharing. I've looked and looked and can't find documentation online showing how to set this up. I have found some but nothing that is complete. I have spent 2 days spinning my wheels.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a pair of ASA5520s in active/active failover - this works fine. Both primary and secondary ASAs are running 8.2(2) code.I have a 30-day temp 50 seat SSL license that I applied to the primary. I then started having problems with L2L tunnels.
I noted that if the 'show crypto isakmp sa' state for an L2L was MM_STANDBY, then the remote protected net could not reach my side. However, I could ping across to the other side at which time the state changed to MM_ACTIVE as I would expect and the remote could then reach my side.
I believe this results from the differences between the two licenses. When I applied the 50 seat SSL lic. it disabled failover, but I was willing to risk that for a few days to do show my customer the benifits of SSL connectivity. Note license differences. Is this causing the MM_STANDBY IKE issue and if so can I overcome it and use the 50 SSL VPN Peers lic.

I have recently configured secondary ip address on LAN Interface of Cisco C6509.. We have some application which needs to use broadcast traffic communication to communicate with client... Broadcast is working within subnet & also working from broadcast server to primary subnet. But not working from secondary subnet.. I have checked broadcast within secondary IP range & it's working fine... Secondary not working broadcast with primary and also with broadcast server... broadcast address is different for these subnet but both should be communicate since configured on same interface... When I went through Cisco website found that command "ip directed broadcast" which will pass broadcast to different subnet... But I'm not sure whether any other impact if I enable that command on particular Ethernet interface...

What i the correct config for Dual ISP setup with primary PPOE and secondary DHCP
We an 887m router in our office with an unmanaged switch. We have two networks, 192.168.0.x and 192.168.11.x connected to router on the same interface (192.168.11.253 is a secondary ip) but I can seem to be able to route packets from one network to the other. Internet traffic is fine from both networks. I can't see what I'm doing wrong here. I can ping the 192.168.11.253 (router) from the 192.168.0 network but nothing beyond that.
I tried this at home with no other config and its the same. Is this by design?
We have a customer who has a network consisting of two ISPs, one as a primary and the other as a backup. We are trying to create a configuration that would allow the primary link to fail and the secondary link to automatically pick up traffic and begin routing .how to set something like this up. Both routers are non Cisco routers and there for HSRP is out.

I can add one acs in europe to the deployment as secondary. When I try to add the acs in USA to the deployment - Nothing really works.
The status shown in the primary is offline (red) and status pending. It stays like this for hours. When I log in to the gui directly on the acs in USA, it still has status primary.
The two acs are transparently connected. There is WAN optimization (cisco waas) in between the two datacentres..
I have two ACS 5.2 working in redundancy Primary and Secondary my question in when my primary ACS goes down i can´t see the log in the secondary ACS.

Now I configurated my secondary ACS like logg collector server now when my Primary ACS goes down i can see the logg. Finally when my Secondary ACS goes down i can modified the ACS Primary Configution by show me the logg.. Is possible to do this automaticaly for show me the event logg ? when the ACS that is configurate like logg collector server goes down pass the event other ACS automatically..
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have 3 ACS servers placed throughout N. America. I it set up so that ACS01 is primary and ACS02 and ACS03 are secondary. When i look at the logs for passed/failed authentications in radius or tacacs I cannot see anything from ACS03 logging. This is weird because just a few weeks ago it worked perfectly. In fact, ACS03 is the most active server since this site is using it for wireless phones and tacacs and the other 2 are just using ACS for wireless networking. I went through the log settings and every server is set up the same as the others (except the primary) so it should be logging ACS03 the exact same as 01 and 02.Anyway it seems like a small problem but i need the logs to work correctly to properly administrate security.

Cisco ACS VERSION INFORMATION
-----------------------------
Version : 5.3.0.40
Internal Build ID : B.839
We recently had to rebuild our ACS server. Now when we have an 802.1x authentication failure and look at the RADIUS logs for the specific user, it does not show us the MAC address of the device the user tried to login with. We use this all the time because users have PDAs and other mobile devices that they save their passwords on. Then when they change their domain password on their laptop, they don't change it on their PDA which then tries to authenticate them using the wrong password and eventually locks them out. We need to see the MAC address so we can pinpoint which device is causing the lockout. The report I am generating is when you go to this location: Monitoring & Reports > ... > Reports > Catalog > User > User_Authentication_Summary

I see this command in accounting logs as uername xyz oriv 15 secret *** where as in tacacs authorization logs it shows username xyz priv 15 secret cisco 123
