Hello Kamlesh-

Here are the supported AD and LDAP solutions directly from Cisco's site:

Windows Active Directory

ACS 5.8 supports all editions of:

■Windows AD 2003

■Windows AD 2003 R2

■Windows AD 2008

■Windows AD 2008 R2

■Windows AD 2012

■Windows AD 2012 R2

■Windows AD 2012 R2 update 2

Lightweight Directory Access Protocol Server

ACS 5.8 supports Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) servers. The supported LDAP servers include, but are not limited to:

■SunONE LDAP Directory Server - Version 5.5

■Linux LDAP Directory Server - Version 4.1

■Open LDAP Directory Server

As a result, you should be using LDAP and not AD when trying to integrate with RHDS. 

I hope this helps!

Hi Neno,

I need one more help for joining Cisco ASR 1006/1002 router in ACS using TACACS+.

The source interface is a member of VRF and we are not able to authenticate the router through ACS.

Thanks

Can you post your:

1. AAA related configs

2. TACACS+ related configs

3. Line (Console/VTY) related configs

Also, can you provide more info around what is the problem? For instance:

1. Can the Network Device ping the ACS server when sourced from the VRF interface

2. Does a "aaa test" command reach the ACS server

3. Output from logs/debug
