Administrating the access for Aironet AP using ACS 3.2

alahmadi

My scenario is:

- Cisco APs (350 & 1200 Series)

- ACS 3.2 appliance

- Active Directory

- User authenticate for wireless connection using Cisco PEAP

Now the wireless users have user accounts in the ACS 3.2 mapped to the external data base AD to get connected to the WLAN. How can I configure the ACS 3.2 and the APs to authenticate “Administrator Users” with a different privilege “Read or Wire” to get access to the AP for troubleshooting or updating? Will be there a conflict on the users who have both an access to the WLAN and Admin account?

What I want to know, is it possible to administrate the access for the AP configuration and getting access for the WLAN at the same time by using the ACS 3.2? And how it can be?

Regards

Yes. I am currently doing exactly that (only with LEAP authentication for the wireless user).

I use tacacs+ for the authentication/authorizatin/accounting of adminsitrative functions.

Create a SECOND network object in ACS for using the tacacs+ features. Use a different key to communicate to the server.

Here are the aaa commands I use on my 350's and my 1200's:

aaa authentication login default group tacacs+ local-case

aaa authentication enable default group tacacs+ enable

aaa authorization config-commands

aaa authorization exec default group tacacs+ local

aaa authorization commands 0 default group tacacs+ local

aaa authorization commands 1 default group tacacs+ local

aaa authorization commands 15 default group tacacs+ local

aaa accounting exec default start-stop group tacacs+

aaa accounting commands 0 default start-stop group tacacs+

aaa accounting commands 1 default start-stop group tacacs+

aaa accounting commands 15 default start-stop group tacacs+

Also, identify your tacacs server along with your radius server:

tacacs-server host xxxx

tacacs-server xxxxx
