ACS RADIUS Certificate Access Workflow

[jonasdiaz]

Hello Friends, I've been trying to deploy a ACS solution that includes Radius, connection with an AD database and Certificate-Based Access to the network but the documentation that I have found is very very vague and is getting a little bit complex for me to deploy it. I wonder if there's a guide or a better organize documentation about the diferent scenarios of configuration for the ACS solution. At least a workflow configuration document that has secuenced steps. Thanks in advance for your help.

PD: If any of you is involved with Cisco documentation I hope it serves as a suggestion and recommendation.

Atte. Jonás.

Hi Jonas,

The real question is "what is happening on your clients ?".

Is it a 802.1x authentication system ? Is it VPN users ?

The methods available for authentication vary depending on this point.

Hi Jonas,

Please take a look into this doc:

https://supportforums.cisco.com/docs/DOC-13545.

It is a step-by-step guide to configure ACS for dot1x, installing certs on the ACs and integration with AD.

Regarding the Certificate based authnetication, there you need to be more specific on what EAP type you intend to use.

HTH,

Tiago

Hi Tiago, I want to implement MS-CHAPv2  Certificate-Based Auth. I'll give a look to the doc you mentioned before. Thanks for your help.
