Cisco AAA/Identity/Nac :: Rancid Works With ACS 4.2 But Not 5.3?
Jan 28, 2013
We are in the process of upgrading from ACS 4.2 to 5.3. Most things seem to be working but we are having some major issues with the Rancid configuration tool. I can log into devices using CLI login with the credentials that Rancid uses but Rancid fails login.
This worked fine with our 4.2 implementation but not the 5.3. Presumably I need to make a chance in the expect scripts because the new ACS server sends a different string but I have no idea what it is supposed to be.
how the CDP device sensor probe works with ISE ?What I am trying to do, is to identify different Cisco Wireless Access Point models (i.e. LAP 1142) with ISE.Since the APs do speak CDP (I can see the AP devices on the switch), this should be possible with the CDP device sensor on the switch, shouldn't it I have done the following so far: Configured the switch to talk to ISE via radius accounting: [code] Should this config make the switch send CDP information about connected devices to the ISE (via radius accounting) ?How do the device sensors work ?
I set up LDAP store pointing to a Windows domain and am testing authenticating users via an ASA. In my LDAP config, its set for "Groups Objects refer to subjects" and I selected usernames in the drop down. I also added a a Global Group to the Directory groups tab in the LDAP store that I created.
Under my Access Polices, I created a rule that meets two condititons - coming from the ASA, and then I was able to select the group from the drop down box for my ldap domain. As a condition, it shows up as DomainName:External Groups. I set the permission to Permit Access.
Originally, I was failing authentication and I was receiving Subject Not Found in Store. I adjusted the Identity Sequence and now I receive a the following error:
15039: Selected Authorization Profile is Deny Access. So it must not be associating my account with the group with the Permit Access and using the Default Permissions.So it does match the correct Access Service, and Identity Store.
This question might actually belong under tacacs server but it's only happening with the ACE. I've configured tacacs on the 4710 and configured the tacacs server per the documentation. If I enter the shell:<context>*Admin default-domain under the group settings when I login with my tacacs ID my role is set to Network-Monitor. If I set the shell in my specific tacacs ID I'm assigned the correct role as Admin. We're running ACS ver 4.1 and the ACE is A4(1.1)
this computer was working on this router no problem. computer crashed and noiw computer is fine i connected it to my cable from ny desk top comutyer and works fine. It just cannot hook up to the wireless connection?
I'm trying to test such 802.1x wired environment:windows xp sp3 as supplicant windows NPS as radius server 2960 as authenticator latest anyconnect (3.1.01065) + nam and standalone profile editor.I have a question: What is the difference between protected identity pattern and unprotected identity pattern (set in nam profile editor)? As I understand documentation PEAP-MSCHAPv2 is a tunneled method and it uses un- protected identity pattern to protect user's identity during phase 0. But if I use any fake identity here (anonymous, anonymous@[domain], etc) access is rejected (Access-Reject in switch debugs). I have to use exacly the same pattern in unprotected identity pattern as in protected identity pattern ([username] or [username]@[domain]) to gain access, regardless of authenticaton mode (same in machine only, user only authentication).
I have a new Cisco Secure ACS 5.2 on a VM. We want to use it to for administrative access to our Cisco equipment with TACACS+. I am trying to map user permissions to different groups of devices based on active directory group membership, however it is not working.
I am using an LDAP (configured for secure authentication) external identity store. On the directory organization tab, I have confirmed the accuracy of the subject and group search base and the test configuration button shows that it's finding > 100 users and >100 groups.
On the directory groups page I have entered the groups according to the required format. cn=groupname1,ou=groups,dc=abc,dc=com
I have a rule based result selection under group mapping. I have two rules in the format below.
Conditon LDAP:Externalgroups groupname1 Result Identitygroup1
I have the default group set to a identity group named other. My problem is, no matter what user attempts to authenticate, the Default rule is applied, and the user is put into the other identity group.This occurs when I log on as a groupname1 user, groupname2 user, or as user that is not a member of either of those groups. LDAP authentication works and the user is able to logon to the device.
We are using ACS 5.2 and we are trying to create a Microsoft Active Directory (AD) Identity Store. We have a user to be used in the Active Directory creation General page and we would like to know how the test communication / ACS to AD communication takes place.
Our user is a predefined user in AD and has admin rights, but the password expires every 60 days. Will this affect the communication between AD and ACS 5.2 at everytime the entered user's password expires?
I'm currently looking for a solution in order to restrict the modification of the host internal identity store (add or delete MAC host) per group. The default administrator roles does not include "per group restriction". Under the ACS I defined one group per department? My objective it to allow each department to access their ACS MAC database to add or delete MAC addresses as required.
How to restrict internal identity store per group?Do I need to create new roles? and how?I was not able to get an answer from the ACS ADMIN manual.
I have a new ACS 5.3 configure and a ASA5550 to authenticate VPN users using a remote LDAP server. Once I try to authenticate the users with the ACS it gives me the error message "22056 Subject not found in the applicable identity store(s)."
I checked out the documentation and have already configure the Identity store sequences to redirect everything to the LDAP server, I also did the Bind test and it says that is ok, but I still have the same problem.
I validated the Access Policies Menu, and tried to create a new Service Selection Rules, but whet I get to the option of modifying the Identity option I get the error: "This System Failure occurred: {0}. Your changes have not been saved.Click OK to return to the list page. " and I'm not able to modify the identity, not in this new option I created, nor in the ones already created in the ACS.
I have two ACS v 5.2 (primary and secundary) and some users are in the internal stor and the others are in the AD.The local site topology is like this:
PC - AP - WLC - ACS - AD
Authentication method is PEAP(EAP-MSCHAPv2) and all user have the certificate company installed. The OS in the client users is Windows 7.Users was working fine but some users reports intranet disconnections. I see in the ACS log many "22056 Subject not found in the applicable identity store(s)." and "24415 User authentication against Active Directory failed since user's account is locked out" alarms.I believed it was because user wasn´t in the AD data base, but some times the same user is authenticated successfull and other i see the "22056...." or "24415...." alarms.
I switched the role for ACS primary to works as secundary and we see the same alarms.
I have ACS 5.2 running as a VM. I'm AD, then local authentication successfully for device access, but I want to define ACS user groups to restrict login. I don;t see any way to do this. If I use AD groups, they don;t show up as selection options on the policy screens, just the ACS locallyy defined groups.
We have a ACS 4.3.2 installed with users authenticating against an Active Directory database. The AD database not only authenticate the users but also assigns the group that is used to select IP address pool.Now the requirements require to use token authentication with SafeNet. This authentication uses the same username but the password is composed of the original password + OTP.The problem is that the SafeNet server doesn't return the group membership.I've read about the Identity Store Sequence in ACS 5.x and I think I could use it in the following sequence:! configure an Authentication Sequence using the SafeNet token server (this works with ACS 4.x)I configure an Attribute Retrieval Sequence against the AD database. This would use the username only, no password and would retrieve the group membership.
I'm looking for Cisco ISE v1.1 to use the following licensing feature. url...Endpoint is dynamically profiled by Cisco ISE and assigned dynamically or statically to an endpoint identity group. Cisco ISE authorization rules do not use this endpoint identity group.
I am currently running cisco ACS 5.1.0.44 and use active directory as the main authentication identity store to allow network administrators to have access to network devices in my organization .As per the established security policies in my organization , the ACS has to disable any account after 3 failed login attempts to any network devices .i have gone through all the settings oN the acs but couldn't find where or how it is done .
I have installed ACS 5.4 and we are looking to authenticate our Anyconnect users with ACS via Active Directory. I think I have the correct commands in our ASA ( we had ACS 4 and authenticated our anyconnect users ).
I also have configured ACS to use Active Directory and installed the server side cert in ACS. I'm just uncertain how to program ACS to use the security group that I have setup in Active Directory.
I have an ACS 5.3 cluster, that is configured to use AD. There are a few wireless devices, and monitoring tools that do not have AD accounts. I would like to configure ACS to first check AD for the user authentication, and if that fails to roll over to the local (Internal Users) identity source where I can define these user accounts.
It seems that when the authentication hits the initial Identity Policy rule, it never moves onto the next one if the first fails.
Attached are screen shots that show how i'm configured for the test, i have a local user defined and I'm trying to log into the firewalls.
- Identity Definition : Screen shot of the main ACS definition for the rule i'm testing that's not working - Identity Rule 1 : The configuration of rule 1 that if it fails i need it to move onto rule 2. - Log Output : Screen shot for one of the failed attempts from the ACS View Log server.
Reason I need to configure it this way is:
- Wireless users authenticate to wireless using AD user accounts. Some hand held scanners do not support that and will need to authenticate using the MAC address. - Authentication to Network devices for managment uses AD accounts. We have some monitoring tools that do not have AD accounts, and will need to be able to log into Network devices to issue some commands (Examples: Cisco Prime LMS and NCS, Infoblox NetMRI).
how profiling works exactly ?How intelligent is the profiling engine, meaning: Will it discover that one device has more than one different MACs and will merge the entries in the database ??
Example:This is in fact the same device, there is only one WLC-2500 in the network ....If it can discover that, what needs to be configured on the ISE to do that ?
I have setup an Identity Firewall on a ASA version 5.6 on a DMZ interface.I have installed the ADAgent on a domain member Win2008 and configured as follows: [code]
where ashdew is a domain user and ACL 122(only one line) is applied on the dmz interface and NAT is properly configured.The ADagent has been properly tested and ASA can register to it.The ASA can connect to AD DC controller and query user database.I have placed a laptop ip 172.17.h.x on the DMZ and can ping the DMZ interface.
The laptop cannot authenticate on the domain and the asa does not seem to retrieve the user identity.Do I need to add extra rules in the access-list 122 to permit trafic to DC?Can I check on the AD Agent if it can retrieve the user to ip mapping ?
I understand that Cisco Secure ACS 5.3 supports the integration with existing external identity repositories such as Windows Active Directory and LDAP servers. In fact, in my environment, my ACS 5.3 is now integrated with AD and RSA.My question here is can Cisco Secure ACS 5.3 integrate with "multiple" WIndows AD, LDAP, RSA Server etc.? if yes, is there a Cisco document stating this? The keyword here is multipple.
I am trying to setup PEAP authentication for wireless users but I got stuck at place where I have single ssid and users are store in different identity stores like some will be using their active directory and some are locally created users on ACS. I created separate service for wireless authentication and under that I am unable to create rule to differentiate them with identity stores. any idea how to achieve this.
I tried creating identity selection based on role but it does not work as for protocol like radius.peap,ms-chap ACS does not look for another identity store once user not find in an identity stores.
I configured before ACS v4.2 to authenticate network devices using internal users at first, and if the user is not found use AD list users. But with v5.3 I have some problems doing this, on identity policies I use rule based result selection option, I configured 2 polices for Identity source, one for Internal Users and other policy for AD user, but it only works with the first policy, internal users or AD, but works only for the first policy identity. how to do that, if the user is not found on first policy, continue to the next policy.
I need a specify users to allow access to particular devices and give privilege only for show command or show run. Here is how I tried to configured.
1. Configured two seperate Shell Profile and Command set with privilege level 4-5 and allowing only show run command
2. create seperate service selection rule with adding the require NDG and protocol TACACS and maching service "RestrictAccess"
3. In the RestrictAccess Service I have following configured; Identity: internal users, Group Mapping to a particular group where the user exists, authorization: matching the above created identity group, NDG, shell profile, command sets
All the steps are attached in the .doc file. However when I tried with the particular user he is able to access everything and he is not hitting the correct access rule.
We are running ISE 1.0.4 with a requirement that on the surface is simple, but fails to execute properly no matter how I tweak it it. It is:
VPN users either need to be within a certain AD group or They need to authenticate against RSA.
I set authentication to use an identitysequence with RSA listed first, then AD second. I set authorization to check identity server (using network access:AuthenticationIdentityStore). - If it’s RSA, pass it. - If it’s Active directory, AND the condition with a check on that group membership. Pass if both pass. - Set the default authorization rule to deny access.
This should work. Here’s where it breaks down. It all stems from the fact that the same userIds exist in RSA and AD and that ISE steadfastly refuses to attempt the second identity server method listed in the sequence if RSA is listed first.
• If I list RSA first and the “authentication failed” policy is set to Reject: For users not in RSA that I want to authenticate against AD, it rejects – it attempts against RSA but never hits AD (second server listed in the Identity sequence). This is what is brokenThis works for users in RSA
• If I list the RSA server first and the “authentication failed” policy is set to continue Users not in RSA will pass authentication that shouldn’t because the network access: AuthenticationIdentityStore value will be pointing to the RSA server, regardless of whether they actually passed to that server or not.Effectively users can connect regardless of whether their password is right or notThis option sets it to proceed from authentication to authorization
• If I list AD first in the sequence Since the same ID exists in both AD and RSA, it’ll fail as bad password against AD. It'll never attempt against RSA.
Am I missing a simple fix for this? I have a testbed in which I can simulate the issue but since I don’t have an RSA server handy, I’m using an identity sequence with AD and fallback to internal. It works as I’d expect, falling back from AD to local if the user doesn't exist in AD. If the user is in AD, it never tries local and shows the attempt as a bad password.
I am trying to add some APC UPS Devices into CiscoWorks LMS 4.1. For example i have three APC Smart UPS 5000 RT RMXLI with management cards AP9619, i have chosen Device Type as "Smart-UPS RT 5000 XL" in Nom-Cisco Devices list, but when i am creating Invetory collection job, i`m getting status failed for this devices and the error is: "RICS0001:Internal Error,unable to process the collected data from the device"
I’ve set VPN up between two sites using Cisco ASA 5505 and Wizard. Unfortunately VPN works only one way From 8.2 (2) to 8.3 (1) and after spending one day trying to resolve the issue. Logs shows that ping leave ASA 8.3 but never hits ASA 8.2 – opposite way everything works perfectly. [code]
SM-ES3-16-P works as a layer 3 module which means that the uplink which connects to router ( Internally ) is a layer 3 interface . Is there a way we can use it as a layer 2 switch and connect the uplink as a trunk port ?
How NetFlow works when NAT is enabled in the Cisco Router? ...the translation of IP addresses is done before or after save the packets in the flow caches?
I'm setting up a VPN in order to share files between two locations. I'm not sure it's the best solution, but he insists on using his Cisco ASA 5505 Firewall via a clientless VPN. His set-up is a simple residential cable modem (Motorola SurfBoard/TimeWarner) set in DMZ mode, the Cisco ASA, and an Ubuntu server.
The Clientless VPN is set up, as are the user groups, and bookmarks. I'm able to browse to the firewall's internal interface IP (https://192.168.1.1) and log in to the Clientless VPN portal, and from there, I can access all of the plug-ins I've configured (CIFS, VNC, etc). The problem is that I cannot connect from outside the local area network.
I think it's something very basic that I'm missing, like a NAT rule. I've tried adding some, but they always seem to interfer with the NAT rule allowing users to connect, via the internet, to the Apache web server (port 80) running on the Ubuntu machine behind the ASA Firewall.
Like I said, I'm not sure this is the best solution for him. Using an ASA seems like overkill for something that can be accomplished with some software, but he and I are both fans of Cisco, and, as I said, he is adament about using this set-up. If it comes down to it, I'd like to be able to honestly tell him that I exhausted every resource in trying to find a way to make this work for him before giving up and going to "Plan B".
I am fairly new to Cisco IOS, yet I've managed to get it up and running on a Cisco 1841 to act as a router and firewall between WAN and LAN. Everything works *except* I am unable to ping or make any other connection from the router itself to the WAN. It will ping or telnet to the LAN, all LAN to WAN traffic is functioning properly, NAT is setup and functioning, WAN to LAN and inbound firewall is working, yet I still cannot ping or telnet from the IOS interface to anything on the WAN side (I've tried using different source addresses)
I am hoping there is something obvious that I overlooked, perhaps IPS is blocking the traffic? Do I need a specific route entry for the local device? I can post entire config if necessary, but would rather not if there is an obvious solution.
We have a PBR configured on a 2911 router (15.1-4.M2). The PBR is being used to send specific traffic across a S2S VPN instead of an MPLS connection. If ip cef is enabled, the router sends the traffic across the MPLS. If ip cef is disabled, the traffic goes across the S2S VPN. I checked to see if there were any bugs in the code they are running about this and nothing came up. It almost like CEF enabled PBR isn't working on this device, even though it should be enabled by default when ip cef is turned on.
