Chapter 4 Managing GSS User Accounts Through a Server
Configuring a Server for Use with the GSS
Configuring a Server for Use with the GSS
This section describes how to set up a server, such as the Cisco Secure
Access Control Server (ACS). It is intended as a guide to help ensure proper
communication with a server and a GSS operating as a
client. For details on configuring the Cisco Secure ACS, or another
server, see the documentation provided with the software.
This section contains the following topics:
•
Configuring Authentication Settings on the Server
•
Configuring Authorization Settings on the Server
•
Configuring Accounting Settings on the Server
Note
For the GSS to properly perform user authentication using a server, the
username and password must be identical on both the GSS CLI and the
server.
Configuring Authentication Settings on the Server
To configure the authentication settings on Cisco Secure ACS, perform the
following steps:
1.
Proceed to the Network Configuration
section of the Cisco Secure ACS
HTML interface, the Add AAA Client page (see
Figure 4-2
).
6.
Enable the authorization service to permit or restrict user access
to specific GSS CLI commands, as defined by the server.
gssm1.example.com(config)#
aaa authorization commands
7.
Enable the accounting service to monitor the use of specific CLI
commands and GUI pages by each GSS user.
gssm1.example.com(config)#
aaa accounting commands
