User Data Configuration Options
The Configure User Defined Fields page enables you to add (or edit) up to five
fields for recording information on each user. The fields you define in this section
subsequently appear in the Supplementary User Information section at the top of
the User Setup page. For example, you could add the user’s company name,
telephone number, department, billing code, and so on. You can also include these
fields in the accounting logs. For more information about the accounting logs, see
About Cisco Secure ACS Logs and Reports, page 9-4
. For information on the data
fields that compose the user data options, see
User-Defined Attributes, page F-35
.
Defining New User Data Fields
To configure new user data fields, follow these steps:
Step 1
Click Interface Configuration, and then click User Data Configuration.
Result: The Configure User Defined Fields page appears. Check boxes in the
Display column indicate which fields are configured to appear in the
Supplementary User Information section at the top of the User Setup page.
Step 2
Select a check box in the Display column.
Step 3
In the corresponding Field Title box, type a title for the new field.
Step 4
To configure another field, repeat Step 2 and Step 3.
Step 5
When you have finished configuring new user data fields, click Submit.
Tip
You can change the title of a field by editing the text in the Field Title box and
then clicking Submit. For the change to take effect, you must restart the
Cisco Secure ACS services by clicking Restart at the bottom of the Service
Control page in the System Configuration section and then stopping and restarting
the CSAdmin service by using the Services section of the Administrative Tools
folder in Windows Control Panel. Restarting Cisco Secure ACS-related Windows
services should be done during off hours because it briefly interrupts
authentication, authorization, and accounting.
