authorizations included are the services to which the user is entitled, such as IP
over PPP, IP pools from which to draw an IP address, access lists, and
password-aging information. The authorizations, with the approval of
authentication, are then passed to the CSTacacs or CSRadius modules to be
forwarded to the requesting device.
CSDBSync
CSDBSync is the service used to synchronize the Cisco Secure ACS database
with third-party relational database management system (RDBMS) systems.
CSDBSync synchronizes AAA client, AAA server, network device groups
(NDGs) and Proxy Table information with data from a table in an external
relational database. For information on RDBMS Synchronization, see RDBMS
Synchronization, page 8-29.
CSLog
CSLog is the service used to capture and place logging information. CSLog
gathers data from the TACACS+ or RADIUS packet and CSAuth, and then
manipulates the data to be placed into the comma-separated value (CSV) files.
CSV files can be imported into spreadsheets that support this format.
For information about the logs generated by Cisco Secure ACS, see Chapter 9,
“Working with Logging and Reports.”
CSMon
CSMon is a service that helps minimize downtime in a remote access network
environment. CSMon works for both TACACS+ and RADIUS and automatically
detects which protocols are in use.
You can use the Cisco Secure ACS HTML interface to configure the CSMon
service. The Cisco Secure ACS Active Service Management feature provides the
options for configuring CSMon behavior. For more information, see
Cisco Secure ACS Active Service Management, page 8-55.
