Hi,

 

I have a pair of ACS appliances running 5.4.

 

I have a service that I want to send only the accounting information for logging purposes... No authentication is required.

 

Can I do that on ACS?

 

Thanks is advanced,

 

Naor.

Yes, you can.  You just need to setup different AAA accounting tag/group on the network devices and pointing to the accounting to that server (in addition to the primary authentication/accounting server).

this is being done by Managed Service Providers (MSP) all the times.

Worked!

 

Configured the external device as a proxy RADIUS server and the messages stated to appear anded it.

 

Thanks!!

Dear all, I am also working on a similar solution that the ACS needs to forward Accounting messages to an external RADIUS server for SSO purposes. So if I am correct the only thing to do is to configure the primary RADIUS server as a proxy RADIUS server and add the second RADIUS server to forward accounting information?

Or do I have to change the network devices (NAP) to forward Accounting requests to the second RADIUS server?
