Can you use AD authentication for ACS 5.2 admin accounts?

randy.klassen — Mon, 11 Mar 2019 01:12:55 GMT

Hi,

I want to set it up so that when you log into any of the ACS 5.2 servers you have to use your AD credentials to log in and define what access you have. Is this possible? If so, how can this be set up?

Thanks,

Randy

Nope, not that I have found. I'm not sure if they are going to do this in a future release or not, but it sure would be nice.

Is there an official statement from Cisco stating this.

Ive been asked to do the same apart of our security best practices.

It should be working. I am using domain account for ACS 5.x admin login

This now works in 5.8, I "think" the feature was added in 5.4 but I'm not 100% on that.

Works for our 5.6 ACS servers as well. Check if the following exists:

System Administration > Administrators > Administrative Access Control

> Identity

> Authorization
