Two standalone ACS for TACacs authentication

[selva Kathir]

Dear All,

I am having a network consists of some 30 routers and I have 2 ACS 5.3 appliances.

I am planing to configure the acs (a,b) boxes in the standalone mode .

and i want to configure both the acs as the TACACS server in all my routers

with ACS A as the primary in some routers and ACS B as the primary in some routers.

and there is no configuration sync between the ACS boxes.

Does this setup will have any issue in authentication in case if any of the acs fails ....

thanks in advance ...

There will be no issue, unless the configuration is not same. My personal opinion distributed deployment is the best method if you are planning to keep more than one ACS with in a domain.
