User Guide for Cisco Secure ACS for Windows Server

For Cisco Secure ACS to provide AAA services to a AAA client, you must ensure
that gateway devices between AAA clients and Cisco Secure ACS allow
communication over the ports needed to support the applicable AAA protocol
(RADIUS or TACACS+). For information about ports used by AAA protocols,
see AAA Protocols—TACACS+ and RADIUS, page 1-6.
To add a AAA client, follow these steps:
Step 1 In the navigation bar, click Network Configuration.
Result: The Network Configuration page opens.
Step 2 Do one of the following:
• If you are using NDGs, click the name of the NDG to which the AAA client
is to be assigned. Then, click Add Entry below the AAA Clients table.
• To add a AAA client when you have not enabled NDGs, click Add Entry
below the AAA Clients table.
Result: The Add AAA Client page appears.
Step 3 In the AAA Client Hostname box, type the name assigned to this AAA client (up
to 32 characters).
Step 4 In the AAA Client IP Address box, type the AAA client IP address or addresses.
Step 5 In the Key box, type the shared secret that the AAA client and Cisco Secure ACS
use to encrypt the data (up to 32 characters).
Note For correct operation, the identical key must be configured on the AAA
client and Cisco Secure ACS. Keys are case sensitive.
Step 6 If you are using NDGs, from the Network Device Group list, select the name of
the NDG to which this AAA client should belong, or select Not Assigned to set
this AAA client to be independent of NDGs.
Note To enable NDGs, click Interface Configuration, click Advanced
Options, and then select the Network Device Groups check box.
