CS-Mars and AAA ACS - fail

[Rene Rolsted]

I try to setup a CS-Mars to AAA Cisco ACS

I setup the mars to RADIUS(Cisco VPN 3000/ASA/PIX 7.x+) with shared secret 1234

Cisco ACS hostname: cis04ba1

CS-Mars hostname: mars01ba1

I got this error logs in Failed Attempts

I have tried to set CS-Mars to RADIUS(IETF) this is the same

But why is there a user with username test

I upload a pdf file with screenshots

Not sure which resources you used to configure this, but this looks like Cisco ACS server, so "Generic AAA server" will cause us to parse logs from this device wrong on MARS.

Follow this guide to add the ACS server to MARS:

http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/security/security_management/cs-mars/6.0/device/configuration/guide/cfgAaaSv.html#wp914530

There is also a section in here on bootstrapping your ACS for MARS:

http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/security/security_management/cs-mars/6.0/device/configuration/guide/cfgAaaSv.html#wp914530

Make sure you have done both the above. You might even want to start over with everything you have done thus far.
