Cisco AAA/Identity/Nac :: Upgrade To ACS 5.4 - Authentication Server And Log Collector
Jan 28, 2013
We got 2 Cisco ACS 5.2.0.26.10.Primary server as authentication server and log collector.Secondary server as authentication server. Replication is configured. url..."There are some exceptions to this usual setup, which you can handle as described below: If the ACS 5.3 primary server also functions as a log collector in your 5.3 deployment, you should promote any one of the secondary servers as primary server in the deployment. See Promoting a Secondary Server to Primary "
This exception matches with my case. I have to promote my secondary server as primary.I would have :Secondary server as authentication server and log collector.Primary server as authentication server. I think I have to deregister secondary from primary server..According to the guide, I have to upgrade the log collector server. "Step 1: Choose any secondary server to become a log collector:" I dont have another secondary server..

I've noticed a problem with log collector on the secondary acs server. It suddenly stopped to collect logs.So, current acs version is 5.1.0.44.3 and all processes were running. During this time, ACS sent a couple of authentication reports in the monitoring system.But they can not be viewed through ACS Monitoring&Report system. The problem was solved by rebooting the server.

1 ) : Is it possible to do authentication with one ACS server while authorization with another ACS? Use case is if the user authenticated to one ACS server and then switch loses the connectivity to this ACS. Now command authorization requests will go to another ACS server since switch is not able to communicate to the 1st ACS.
2): How can the local database sync be acheived in distributed ACS deployments?
3): Are the accounting records are sync between different ACS? In other words can accounting be centeralised with ACS4.2

Does Cisco Secure ACS 5.3 support LDAP authentication with Apple Mac OS X server? One of our clients require an access control system. The major portion of the network consists of Apple Mac OS X 10.7 (Lion) Server and clients. They were using MAC-address based authentication along with LDAP through Cisco Wireless LAN Controller. But now the number of users has exceeded the maximum number of MAC addresses supported by WLC (2048). Hence we suggested ACS appliance to overcome the limit. My doubt is whether ACS 5.3 appliance can communicate with the Mac server and perform LDAP authentication.

I have a customer who used to own a 3750 with a older version of IOS. The switch he had used a three year old version of IOS which allowed him to browse to the switch IP and manage it via HTTP without entering a password at all. Now that he has a replacement switch with a new ver of IOS (since the previous switch died). We slapped the config on from the old switch but no matter what we do (understanding that new http aaa authentication commands were added) we cant get this thing to let him in without prompting him for a password. I understand this was an insecure config to begin with so I shouldn't be advocating using it in the first place, but this is what the customer wants.Basically what I'm trying to figure out is are we banging our heads into the wall for nothing as the "ip http server" will not allow an authentication method of "none" anyway? None of the offical documentation I have read for the http aaa authentication cmds shows this as an example nor have I found any blog posts on how to do it ether. Perhaps Cisco removed this by design.
Here is the config:
aaa new model
aaa authentication login default local
aaa authentication enable default none
aaa authentication login none none
ip http server
ip http authentication aaa login-authentication none
[code]....

I've been configured my device 6506-9 with TACACS+ server authentication: [code]
but when I tried to access the device only uses authentication local but not uses TACACs (with username/password defined) it can be an error in configuration? in the other devices of network this works properly, only it's wrong in Cat6506-E

I installed NGS 2.0.2 for wireless guest user management and authentication. I implement webauth via webauth page on wlc deployed.One Branch with a WLC5508 version 7.0 wireless anchor controller is working on the NGS.But now I integrate next branch with WLC4402 version 6.0.188 and the authentication of users at the new branch gets an error, wrong user/password.
I double checked configuration and user/password but I can't find any configuration error. Also stopping and starting of radius service and reboot of NGS still does not work. I tried to debug the radius via web interface and watched for the loggfile and there is still a reject.I also tried the freeradius command radiusd -X but I got an error when starting the radiusd -X.
1.) How can I figure out, if I will get the correct password from my WLC ? Are there any debug options to see more ? e.g. some cli commands, radiustest utilities or how to get the received password from the chap challenge of the debug ?
2.) I have appended a part from my radius loggfile. How can I find the detailed error in the radius log file? Is it correct that the password in the debug file is empty ? raiuds logg line "[radius-user-auth] expand: %{User-Password} -> "

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.

Is it possible to upgrade the CSACS-1121-UP-K9 to be a non upgrade part? We were going to upgrade from a Windows 4.x to the above Appliance (version 5.x) but there is now a reason to keep the old Windows version running therefore we cannot give the new Appliance the old ACS's licenses?!So we should have (with hindsight) bought a fresh version of the ACS 5.x rather than an upgrade.

In order to restrict access to websites on our internal network, would we be able to put an ASA in front of the web server and force users to authenticate through the ASA and, once authenticated, allow only port 80 or 443 traffic for that use? The ASA would query the ACS 5.1 server for authentication/authorization using AD as the identity store. Is this even possible with TACACS?

My customer has a large installed base of MACs, all connected via controller-based (5508) WLAN. He wants to grant access to the network based on the device's mac addresses and move the WLAN-clients to a specific VLAN.I added all devices with their mac addresses to the ACS internal identity store for hosts.According to the following message the client sends the user-login credentials (chegger) within the RADIUS-request instead of the clients mac address and of course it has to fail. After many configuration changes, I ended up always with the same result.

I have question on EAP-TLS with ACS 5.2. If I would like to implement the EAP-TLS with Microsoft CA, how will the machine and user authentication take place? Understand that the cert are required on both client and server end, but is this certificate ties to the machine or ties to individual user?
If ties to user, and I have a shared PC which login by few users, is that mean every user account will have their own certificates?
And every individual user will have to manually get the cert from CA? is there any other method as my environment has more than 3000 PCs.
And also if it ties to user, all user can get their cert from CA with their AD login name and password, if they bring in their own device and try to get the cert from CA, they will be able to successfully install the cert into their device right?

We got recently a Cisco Secure ACS 1120 and i upgraded the Appliance to 5.1 from 5.0 with all your support
Now I need to integrate Cisco ACS 5.1 with RSA Authentication Manager 6.1 . I Successfully Downloaded config file from RSA ACE Server and exported into ACS 1120.
I also Added ACS as a NetOS Agent in the RSA Server , during the process i found few warnings . The ACE Server is not able to Resolve the IP Address to NAme ( DOes it Necessary ?? ).
I havent created any secret Key file for communication between ACS and RSA and encryption i used is DES.
Now when I log into ACS and search for Devices in the Identity Store Sequences i am not able to Look for RSA Token Sever .

I have a Cisco ASA (8.2) setup with remote access for my users using Cisco VPN client. The authentication is passed off to my ACS 5.3 which then checks with AD. What I've done so far is create Access Policy rule where I define specifically the Location and NDG where the ASA is and then a DenyAllCommands command set. This should pass authentications just fine but this also gives those users the ability to remote connect directly into the ASA and login successfully. Even though there is a Deny Commands there I still would prefer they get Access Denied as a message. If I do a Deny Access on the ShellProfile then this stops the login authentication altogether.

We would like to enable ACS authentication to login to different routers (Cisco 881s) we got that are interconnecting with our WAN via VPN tunnels. We would like to avoid using public IP for the router to communicate and relay user/password info with the ACS server and rely on the server's private IP instead. The problem is that all the router's outside interfaces connect to the Internet using public IPs and when the router wants to communicate with the ACS server it will use its public-facing interface IP and that'll fail. We can ping the server obviously when we set the source to the internal LAN IP.
The question is is there a way to have the router communicate with ACS across the VPN tunnel using its private IP?
config being used and tested succesfully on local devices:
aaa new-model
tacacs-server host 10.x.x.x single-connection key xxxxxx
aaa authentication login tacacs-local group tacacs local

i am evaluating ACS 5.3 with an ASA5505, by using password management in the IPSec tunnel config i am able to authenticate the VPN clients using mschapv2, however, the SSH sessions are authenticated using PAP
I have looked for days and days for an answer without success, is this by design?
Cisco documents state that SSH can be authenticated via TACACS with PAP,CHAP or MSCHAPv1, however, It seems to be default to PAP
From Cisco Doc: TACACS+ Server Support # The security appliance supports TACACS+ authentication with ASCII, PAP, CHAP, and MS-CHAPv1

I am getting ready to install a new ACS 5.1 server to replace my current 4.1 acs box. I wanted to start off with a fresh install rather than upgrading all of my 4.1 data.
Can I have devices (ASA for VPN authentication, routers & switches for user authentication) use both for authentication while I get all the users configured in the new box?

I have a questión about radius authenticaction with AD, when I log in into the network with user in AD and I make a mistake in password my radius authenticaction event in ACS 5.2 dont show me this logg. only show the authentication succeeded but dont show me the authentication failed. Maybe i must to enable same service to show the authentiaction failed. The Voice authetication works fine..
This is the confg in the port of the switch:

In debug output it gives ruser and rem_addr is null. i did not understand why .
I am able to ping to ACS server and i used telnet 192.x.x.10 49 and it gives the proper output.

I have several devices on the same subnet and with similar configuration. All of them were entered manually on the ACS server and are configured to authenticate using TACACS+. Some of the devices can authenticate ok, but other will timeout. I did a tcpdump on the firewall port and can see the device sending the SYN to the ACS server but the server sends no reply to the device.
