Cisco AAA/Identity/Nac :: Setup ACS 5.2 With An ASA V8.3.2 To Lock Users Into VPN Groups?
Jan 18, 2011
I'm trying to setup ACS 5.2 with an ASA v8.3.2 to lock users into VPN groups based on a users AD group. I've tried various combinations but the group lock isn't working. I've done steps 1 & 2 ...
1) Network Devices and AAA Clients -> Define VPN
2) Users and Identity Stores -> Setup AD and Directory Groups, test connection
Policy Elements:
Q1) Policy Elements - Do I need an authorization profile for each group:
Q2) What RADIUS attributes should I use to match my ASA tunnel-groups?
I am using ACS 5.3 What I am about is setting user authentication against existence of the user in specific AD group, not just being a member in any AD. What is happening now, users get authenticated as long as they exists in the AD, luckily they fail on authorization, as it is bound to specific AD group.
how can I bind the authentication aginst specific group in AD, not just using AD1 as the identity source.
I am trying to set up RA VPN on ASA 8.4 with 2 groups - VPNGp1 and VPNGp2. VPNGp1 users will access 1.2.3.0/24 and VPNGp2 users will access 5.6.7.0/24. User authentication will happen using ACS 5.3 Radius.
On ASA, I have configured the IP pools, VPN ACLs, VPN groups, group policies for each group, and tunnel groups.
On ACS, I have created vpn-user1 and vpn-user2 for each of 2 groups.
I am not sure if some more configuration needs to be done on ASA and ACS... Do I need to add new users - vpn-user1 and vpn-user2 - on ASA, under each corresponding group policy, using vpn-group-policy command? Or I need to do something else on ACS?
Lastly, how can I configure authorization and accounting for the VPN users? Do I need to do this on ACS or on ASA?
One of our accounting administrators will be working in our server this weekend from his home remotely. He wanted to know if there was a way I could temporarily lock users from remoting in a few days to prevent them from messing up his work.The only way I could think of was disabling the accounts in Active Directory and then re-enabling them once he was done. Server is running Windows Server 2003 with the users remoting in via RDP. They all have accounts in Active Directory.
I have a Cisco ASA (8.2) with several group-policies setup. By default, I can hit the SSL page, and have a selection of available group-policies for a user to login to. I want to have different ACLs for each group, to go along with the subnet that each particular group hands out. Right now, as long as a user is authenticated through AAA, they can log in to any group they select, and therefore, have more permissions than another group.
I know how to hide the list, but I need to be able to assign a specific group to a user based on an attribute in ACS.
I've setup ACS to use the "CVPN3000/ASA/PIX7.x-Tunnel-Group-Lock" Atttribute, to which I match the group-policy name in the ASA, to the attribute on the user account in ACS.This doesn't seem to work, and it just throws the user into DfltGrpPlcy, which doesn't give the user anything. So it's either wide-open, or it's broken.
I'm using RADIUS authentication and not TACACS, so it should retrieve the attributes, and according to the ACS, it grabs the attribute during the authentication process.
I have a cisco nexus 7000 switch and a cisco ACS 5.2. I would like to setup the switch to be able to authenticate users with tacacs+ using RSA secureid tokens when they try to logon to the switch.
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.
I have three computers in a Workgroup and I can transfer files through all the computers properly. However I cant set up permissions to who can access these files. The three computers are Windows 7 64bit desktop, Windows 7 64bit laptop, Windows XP Professional 32bit desktop.
What I tried so far... Right-click on folder I wanted to share Click on Sharing Tab Click on Advanced Sharing>Permissions>Add...>Locations
I only see the name of the local computer, I don't see the two other computers on the network. The window looks similar to this, how I can find the other computers in my network, in the locations window.
I have setup ACS 5.2 in my lab and have it completely funcation with Downloadable ACLs, Dynamic VLANs and the identity store on the backend is Active Directory. I need it to lock a user account in AD if there are to many auth attempts. I have gone into AD and set a max login attempts to 3 but if I continue to fail authentication (on purpose) using radius auth, it never locks out my AD account? I am using the Anyconnect 3.0 with NAM as the supplicant installed on my workstation. I have also configured the switchport that I am connect to with the following commands. I tried the dot1x max-reauth-req 3 command and that didn't really do anything for me either. What am I missing here?
I've run into an annoying issue with my ACS 5.2 install. I can no longer add directory groups in the AD settings, the ACS comes back with "The item you are trying to delete is referenced by other items.You must remove all references to this item before it can be deleted." but I am not deleting any group, just adding.
Could probably be cleared with removing the AD setup completely, which for obvious reasons is not something I want to do.
We are running two ACS appliances but we cannot figure out how we can add a user into 2 differents groups.Here's the context :We have a company A which is having devices, this company uses Group A.then we have a company B which is having devices, this company uses Group B.But the admin has to manage the devices for both companies A & B.We don't want to mix devices from company A with company B.Is there a way to add the user into both groups A & B.
I have seen similar references to this issue, but no concrete solutions. My new ACS appears to join my domain with little or no issues, however, when I go to list the groups nothing is ever listed.Running ACS as a vm.I have set the ntp server on the ACS server to match my domain.I can ping all domain controllers/DNS servers.nslookup resolves hostnames of my domain controllers
***Update***
I verified that a computer account for my ACS is in fact being created, however, I am receiving some Kerberos errors on my DC with the FSMO roles:
Description:While processing an AS request for target service krbtgt, the account <ACS SERVER> did not have a suitable key for generating a Kerberos ticket (the missing key has an ID of 1). The requested etypes were 17. The accounts available etypes were 23 -133 -128 3 1.
I have an ACS 5.1 and am trying to integrate with windows 2008 R1. The ACS has a valid AD account and indicates that its connected but when I try to list any directory groups my windows IE browser hangs?
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.
Recently I've been working with the ACS 5.2 (Installed on VMWare). At the beginning I was using a Win Server 2003 Enterprise edition AD, and there was no problem with the AD and the CA Authority. Because some of my customers use Win Server 2008 I change the AD platform to Win Server 2008 Enterprise edition (x64).I don't really have a great experience with Win Server Platforms and, for what I've seen, the Win Server 2003 Services deployment is easier than the Win Server 2008 is.
So, when I used the Win server 2003 I could not only synchronize the ACS with the AD but also use some groups created on the AD to perform the Network Access Authentication. When I try to do the same with the Win Server 2008 AD the ACS and the Server get Synchronized but when I want to add the groups for the Authentication purposes there is no one, absolutely nothing... so I cannot do any test.Also I looked for information about the compatibility between the ACS 5.2 and the Win Server 2008 platforms and at the end the platforms are compatibles.
I have been tasked with migrating from ACS 4 to ACS 5.3. I havent had any training and so i am finding it a bit different. Currently i have this issue -
I have a group in the ACS 4 for users accessing via wireless on the ACS - Code...
I have multiple campuses and a Central Admin...I've created Groups for all, except I need a few devices within Central to be available to the Campus Admins... (ie..a Cisco WCS System) How do I allow a device to be put into multiple NDG groups?
We are running ACS 4.0 so understandably so we are looking to upgrading to a Cisco supportable version of ACS. The limitation of our current version of ACS does not support nested AD groups. The latest version of ACS (I think it is 5.4) will?
I created some User Defined Groups in LMS 4.1, now I want to apply certain fault notification groups to Event Sets.
Unfortunately the Groups I configured are not in the Group Selector of the Fault Notification Group: Admin > Network > Notification and Action Settings > Fault Notification Group
I'm working with a 1113 ACS device running the 4.2.0.124 software. I'm trying to get multiple network device groups to use an existing Remote Agent set up for authentication against our Windows domain. For instance, we want our infrastructure switches to authenticate agains the local Active Directory and our WLC to authenticate users agains the same Active Directory. When I try and set both network device groups to use the same remote agent, it fails and reports either the host name is already in use or the IP address overlaps with an existing remote agent.
The question is:
Can I have multiple network device groups use the same remote agent? Or do I have to install the remote agent software on separate Windows servers in order to have different types of devices authenticate against the Windows AD?
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 ?
Is it possible to export internal ACS users from an ACS 4.x Windows (On ESXi), solution to an ACS 5.x solution. All I want to be able to do is export usernames and passwords out of the 4.x solution and then import them into the 5.x solution. I thought maybe the CSUtil program be used ?
We have remote users that dial-in over ISDN to a Cisco 2911. We have configured AAA to pass the authentication off to a RADIUS server. Once successfully authenticated, the router permits the users to access a single web server. However, we need to do some testing in our test environment, but unfortunately we don't have an ISDN line to test with. We have created a little environment in our LAB using a 2911, a switch, a RADIUS server & web server. I was hoping that we could simply create a "user" VLAN off the back of the 2911 to simulate our remote users, and access the web site from the test usr PC's over the LAN. I was hoping that the 2911 would be able to intercept the connection and pass the authentication off to the RADIUS server (as it does with the PPP ISDN traffic). But I cannot find anyway to do this, because I can only configure AAA to offload either PPP traffic or telnet/ssh connections to the router itself.
In summary what I want is for a user to access an internal web site over a LAN interface of a 2911 - but have the 2911 authenticate the user via a remote RADIUS server first. Is there a way to configure a 2911 (or any router!) to do this?Is the answer to configure port-based authentication (802.1X) on the switch?
After some time no using Cisco ACS5.1, I still don't know how I can see all logged in users. I can see logging and check why an log in goes wrong, but in ACS 3.2 I just clicked on Reports and Activity and I could choose to see logged in users, or failed attempts, etc.
I have an issue with an implementation, I had a ACS R5.1 that I'm using to authenticate the wireless users with 802.1x, that's OK and working fine. Now I want to use the same ACS to authenticate wired users using MAB (for IP phones, printers, servers, and other devices) and 802.1x (for corporate users). I already configured the authentication services (MAB and 802.1x) on ACS, but when I'm doing tests I can see that for example the phones are trying to authenticate using the 802.1x rules of wireless connection, not using the MAB rules. [code]
You could also see an screen from the ACS in the attached file. On the picture remark you could see a IP Phone trying to authenticate using the wireless Access Services insted of using MAB.
on ACSv5.2...are there any limitations on the number of users that can be imported via CSV file...i.e. will the ACS handle 250,000 internal users for example?
I'm at the point of setting up admin access for engineers needing to have insight into the operations and status of our ACS 5.3 systems. any way to create a Dashboard that can be applied to all admin user accounts? (perhaps a custom role?)I've been able to customize the dashboard for my own account to show what is most relevant, but am unable to figure out how to apply this layout and setup to all other users.
Basically, I have a number of folks that need to see this data, but that I can't exactly count on to setup their own dashboards to show the important details. If there were some way to build a tab/dashboard/portlet, etc (whatver it may be) and have it apply to all users, that would save me TONS of work so that I don't have to login to each person's account and set things up for them.For example, I want to have all users see a tab/dashboard that shows the applet "Live Authentications", but with the protocol already configured to display TACACS vs the default which is RADIUS.
Having an issue with Cisco ACS v5.1.0.44 and the Cisco WLC 5508. Cannot get users to authenticate and keep getting error messages referring to EAP session timeouts from WLC filling our logs. Seems to be with this model WLC because we have Cisco 4400 WLCs pointing to the same ACS with no issues. Is there a bug or special configuration that is necessary to marry the 5508 with ACS v5.1.0.44?
