Chapter 8 Establishing Cisco Secure ACS System Configuration
Logging
Note
If the CSAdmin service needs to be restarted, you can do so using the Control
Panel Services applet; however, it is best to allow Cisco Secure ACS to handle the
services because there are dependencies in the order in which the services are
started.
To stop, start, or restart Cisco Secure ACS services, follow these steps:
Step 1
In the navigation bar, click System Configuration.
Step 2
Click Service Control.
Result: The status of the services appears in the CiscoSecure ACS on hostname
table, where hostname is the name of the Cisco Secure ACS.
If the services are running, the Restart and Stop buttons appear at the bottom of
the page.
If the services are stopped, the Start button appears at the bottom of the page.
Step 3
Click Stop, Start, or Restart, as applicable.
Result: The status of Cisco Secure ACS services changes to the state appropriate
to the button you clicked.
Logging
You can configure Cisco Secure ACS to generate logs for administrative and
accounting events, depending on the protocols and options you have enabled. For
more information, including configuration steps, see
Chapter 9, “Working with
Logging and Reports.”
Date Format Control
Cisco Secure ACS allows for one of two possible date formats in its logs, reports,
and administrative interface. You can choose either a month/day/year format or a
day/month/year format.
