Cisco Secure ACS Support for Common Services
Client Applications
CiscoSecure ACS provides authentication, authorization, and accounting services
to network devices that function as AAA clients. CiscoSecure ACS uses the
and RADIUS protocols to provide AAA services that ensure a secure
environment.
Cisco Secure ACS supports Common Services client applications by providing
command authorization for network users who use the management application to
configure managed network devices.
Command authorization for client application users is supported using unique
command authorization set types for each client application configured to use
Cisco Secure ACS for authorization.
Cisco Secure ACS uses to communicate with client applications. For
a client application to communicate with Cisco Secure ACS, you must configure
it in Cisco Secure ACS as an AAA client that uses .
Also, you must provide the client application with a valid administrator name and
password. When a client application initially communicates with
Cisco Secure ACS, these requirements ensure the validity of the communication.
Additionally, the administrator (used by the client application) must have the
Create New Device Command Set Type privilege enabled. When a client
application initially communicates with Cisco Secure ACS, it makes the
Cisco Secure ACS create a new device command set type.
This new device command set type appears in the Shared Profile Components
section of the HTML interface. It also dictates a custom service to be authorized
by . The custom service appears on the page in the
Interface Configuration section of the HTML interface.
After the client application has dictated the custom service and device
command set type to Cisco Secure ACS, you can configure command
authorization sets for each role supported by the client application.
You can then apply those sets to user groups that contain network administrators
or to individual users who are network administrators.
For more information about configuring Cisco Secure ACS administrators, users,
and command authorization sets, see the User Guide for Cisco Secure ACS for
Windows Server Version 3.3 on Cisco.com, or the CiscoSecure ACS Online Help.
