ACS 5.0 IP Pools

[muralee29477]

Hi All

I came to know that there  is no ip pools in the cisco acs 5.0

Can anybody provide an alternative method to achieve this.

Such as how to define the dhcp server and a dhcp pool details to a user or a group

thanking you

Hi

Tks for the docs

But is there a workaround for these such as using an external dhcp server?

yes you can use external DHCP server , or also configure static IP assignment as in attached ppt

[muralee29477]

Hi

Tks for the reply .

I am using this feature of static assignment.

My problem is if i am using a external dhcp server how can i configure it in acs such as

Group 1  takes ip from Poo1

Group 2  takes ip from Pool2

How to mention the DHCP server entry in acs or do ihave to this in the AAA client.

Kind regards

What type of NAS client it is, are this VPN clients that require IP address pool ?

[muralee29477]

If you're using Cisco ASA as a VPN server, then you could config your Cisco ASA to tell your vpn client to use a particular DHCP server.

By the way, the bug you're talking about is in Status : Fixed (verified).

That means that's the patch is about to be released.

Hi

Tks for the reply .

Is there any radius parameter that i could use to define an ip pool to a particular user group.
