Cisco Secure TACACS replication failing

Hi, since we upgraded our pix to version 7 tacacs replication has been failing with a 'server not responding message'. Nothing has changed on the servers and they I see a connection on port 2000 made through the firewall which is active for 5mins (the timeout set on the server). Can anyone help with ideas for troublshooting please
thanks
Nicky

Hi,
On Pix 7.x skinny inspection is enabled by default. Skinny inspection will break ACS replication since it uses port 2000 also.
Disable skinny inspection from any policy map which is applied on pix.

Vivek

    Hello Vineeth
    yes, you are can do through GUI.
    On GUI :
    1. ACS gui > network configuration > click "search" and click "search" again.
    2. Complete list of all network device will appear. On top, you will see an option to "download".
    Download the complete file.
    Let me know if it helps.

  • With Cisco Secure ACS For Windows TACACS+, authentication fails with AD

      I am setting up a Cisco Secure ACS 4.2 server to act as a TACACS server for Switches and Routers  I am using Windows 2003 server for the ACS,
    and a Windows 2003 Active Directory server.  The AD server is fine, as it is used for many other things.
    I have set up ACS as defined nit he installation guide, including all the steps in the 'Member Server' section of the install guide
    when using AD as an external database (i.e. setting up the services to run with a domain admin account, setting up a machine called 'CISCO'
    on the domain etc).
    I've set the unknown user policy to use the Windows database if the internal database doesn;t contain the user details.
    If I add a user to the internal database, the authentication goes through fine, with an entry in the 'Passed Authentications' log,
    02/24/2010,05:07:03,Authen failed,eXXXX,Network Administrators(NDG) ,X.X.X.X,(Default),Internal error,,(geting error message as INternal Error)
    I've scoured google etc, and just cannot come up with any reason why this should be happening.
      I've followed all the install guides to the letter.  I need to get this up and running as soon as possible,
    so am looking forward to finding out if anyone can help me with this one!
    THanks and regards

    Hi  Jesse,
    Thasts a great answer and Soution.
    My previous version was 4.2 and it was installed on 64 bit machine hence getting internal Error.
    After this answer i have upgraded it to ACS4.2.1 and its started working fine
    Thanks very much for the help

  • Patch rollup for Cisco Secure ACS 4.2 fails.

    I've got 2 freshly installed ACS 4.2 for Windows servers and I need to apply the latest patch rollup before I build the configurations.  I stopped the ACS services and ran Acs-4.2.0.124.15-SW.exe to install the patches.  The application begins running fine but fails on upgrading the database and then none of the ACS services would start.  I was able to restore the files from the backup that runs with the patch utility and get ACS functioning again.  What am I missing - does the patch rollup require any specific Microsoft Patches to be installed or something like that?
    Thanks

    Thanks for the feedback.  I attempted the patch rollup install again and it failed in the same place - on the database upgrade.  I did think of one thing.  Do I need to have my antivirus/protection services disabled prior to installing the rollup?
    Also my versions are as follows:
    Server OS - Windows Server 2003 R2
    Cisco Secure ACS - 4.2.(0) Build 124
    Thanks,

  • Cisco Anyconnect Secure Mobility Client Fails to Install

    I've followed and contributed to posts about this problem here: https://supportforums.cisco.com/thread/2057631                  
    But this problem isn't only isolated to 2.5 client, so I thought a new discussion might attract a bit more attention and feedback.
    For 5 or 6 users when I try to install the client as new as version 3.0.11042 (any version, not just the newest) I get a failure:
    CustomAction VACon64_Install returned actual error code -536870348 (note this may not be 100% accurate if translation happened inside sandbox)
    Error 1722. There is a problem with this Windows Installer package. A program run as part of the setup did not finish as expected. Contact your support personnel or package vendor.  Action VACon64_Install, location: C:\Program Files (x86)\Cisco\Cisco AnyConnect VPN Client\VACon64.exe, command: -install "C:\Program Files (x86)\Cisco\Cisco AnyConnect VPN Client\\vpnva64.inf" VPNVA

    Before it rolls back, I try to run the command manually which appears to do something, but doesn't fix the problem.
    This is the step that is trying to install the service VPNVA, but it fails.
    I have cleaned up all the files I know how (which registry entries might I also try?) and rebooted several times, but no luck.
    The documented Cisco solution, and what i've been telling frustrated users one after another is "re-image your machine"
    Does someone have an idea of what else I can try?

    Thank you.
    The workaround works. Yes, using Windows 8.1.
    An HOW TO on how to set this for everyone who is not that computer savvy...
    1. Go to the Start Screen of Windows 8.1 and look for the Cisco Anyconnect Secure Mobility Client icon (or just type it on the Start Screen).
    2. Right click the icon and select 'Open file location'.
    3. Right click the Cisco Anyconnect Secure Mobility Client (Shortcut) and select 'Properties'
    4. Select the 'Compatibility' Tab.
    5. Check the box 'Run this program in compatibility mode for:' and select 'Windows 8' in the drop down.
    6. Click 'OK' to close the window.
    7. Log off and log on again (or reboot the computer).
    Note to point 5. If there are multiple users are using the PC with different user accounts and they're using the Cisco Secure Mobility Client as well, then go to 'Change settings for all users' and there apply point 5. To do so you'll need administrative rights to the computer though.

    Any ideas anyone?

    I believe this is where you need to run CSM Configuration Manager as Administrator.  I had that issue, and I think the note about this is in the Install Guide.

  • Cisco Secure ACS wont' replicate

    Hello Community,
    I wonder if someone could please help me discover why we can't get our primary Cisco Secure ACS, UK-SU-AP091, to replicate with our secondary Cisco Secure ACS, UK-SU-AP092?
    They can both talk to each other, but the replication status is stuck in pending. See attachment.
    Any help will be greatly appreciated..
    Cheers
    Carlton

    Well that's not your ONLY option. It's by far the best one. The primary server is attempting to communicate with the secondary and for whatever reason not succeeding.
    If there is no reachability problem or firewall blocking the necessary ports in between then my first guess (95% + probability) would be that the services are not up on the secondary server. 
    If you cannot access the cli to check that, then you could do more obscure and less helpful checks like capture the traffic towards the secondary server from the local switch port where it connects to the network and examine for the incoming calls from the primary and the responses (if any) from the secondary. You could do a port scan (i.e. using nmap) on the secondary server and see if it responds to tcp/2000 (database replication) and/or tcp/49 and tcp/1812 (TACACS and RADIUS respectively).
    After all of that and at the end of the day though, you're going to need to get into that secondary server. Not having local admin cli access is not a tenable long term situation to operate a production HA deployment.

  • About Cisco secure ACS v3.0

    HI
    I have rebuilt the Tacac server for cisco secure ACS v3.0 and then retore all the data via the "data restore" under the system configuration.
    After rebuilt, it was only working for one day... and then it fails to authenticate users. I checked the event viewer, the error message is:
    ODBC authentication dll failed to initalise, code -1110
    and
    CSMon message: Problem Logging on to CSTacacs. Got as far as Starting Processing in Auth module
    any idea?
    Thanks

    Hi

    I’m working on an evaluation of NAC systems. Therefore, I’ve chosen the Cisco Secure ACS as representative of a 802.1X based solution.
    There are a few questions I wasn’t able to answer by reading the product information available on Cisco.com. I hope that someone here might be able to help me. Any information is highly appreciated.
    The questions I wasn’t able to answer are:
    •     Can the ACS work in a heterogeneous environment (i.e. Cisco and Alcatel Switches)?
    •     What happens if the server(s) fail?
                o     Can already authorized users still work?
                o     Can known users still be authorized?
                o     Are unknown users still blocked?
    •     Is the ACS capable of authorizing users through routed networks or VPN tunnels?
    •     Does a change of the assigned VLAN work without relogin (or even reboot) of the client?
    •     Is there (besides of the reports) some kind of status overview with the ACS?
    •     Which kinds of Attacks can the ACS (alone) prevent?
                o     Can it prevent MAC Spoofing?
                o     Can it prevent MAC Flooding?
                o     Can it prevent ARP Attacks?
                o     Can it prevent IP Spoofing?
                o     Can it eliminate rouge DHCP servers?
                o     Can it prevent STP Attacks
    •     And the last one: What happens if I plug in an unknown device into an IP-Phone? Is the switchport to       which the IP-Phone is connected blocked or only the unknown device?
    Thanks for all answers.
    Regards,
    taouri

    See inline answers:
    The questions I wasn’t able to answer are:
    •     Can the ACS work in a heterogeneous environment (i.e. Cisco and Alcatel Switches)?
    Yes, as long as those devices support RADIUS and TACACS+ IETF standards.  Some devices require the configuration of vendor-specific AV-pairs to work properly, which the ACS in general can do.  You'll need to get details from the specific vendor on their requirements to insure it'll work.
    •     What happens if the server(s) fail?
                o     Can already authorized users still work?
    This is driven by the AAA client, not the ACS.  In general, if it isn't reauthenticating the users, then yes, they'll still work
                o     Can known users still be authorized?
    In general, no, not by the ACS, but for some cases such as dot1x, it may be possible to configure fallback to local authentication or define a critical VLAN.
                o     Are unknown users still blocked?
    Without contact to the server, the AAA client has no way of knowing what user is known / not known barring the above items.
    •     Is the ACS capable of authorizing users through routed networks or VPN tunnels?
    Yes, as long as the VPN device is capable of sending Radius or TACACS+ requests to the ACS
    •     Does a change of the assigned VLAN work without relogin (or even reboot) of the client?
    Yes, if using a supplicant that detects the EAP success message and knows to refresh the IP.
    •     Is there (besides of the reports) some kind of status overview with the ACS?
    Yes, this is covered in the documentation for the appropriate ACS solution.  Incidentally, the word ACS could mean ACS 4.x, or ACS 5.x, both of which are substantially different.
    •     Which kinds of Attacks can the ACS (alone) prevent?
    ACS authenticates and authorizes users.  It isn't in and of itself a device for prevention of the L2 attacks you list.
                o     Can it prevent MAC Spoofing?
                o     Can it prevent MAC Flooding?
                o     Can it prevent ARP Attacks?
                o     Can it prevent IP Spoofing?
                o     Can it eliminate rouge DHCP servers?
                o     Can it prevent STP Attacks
    •     And the last one: What happens if I plug in an unknown device into an IP-Phone? Is the switchport to       which the IP-Phone is connected blocked or only the unknown device?
    This depends on how you configure the dot1x parameters on the port.  In general, this is often configured in single-host mode with a voice vlan for the phone.  The phone passes through the EAPoL traffic the client passes, and in single host mode we rely on CDP bypass for the phone itself to bypass authentication.  There are excellent documents for the various dot1x configuration options in our IBNS (identity-Based Network Solutions) section here:

  • NAC-L2-802.1x (EAP-FAST) and Cisco Secure Services Client 5.0 in wired net

    Hi!
    (Sorry, if this is a wrong forum.)
    Does anybody have any success with Cisco SSC and EAP-FAST in the wired network?
    I'm going to use NAC, so I'm trying to set up EAP-FAST. I see the pop-up window on the client to enter user credentials and I see a lot of "debug radius" messages on my 3750 12.2(44)SE switch:
    Access-Requests with User-Name="anonymous"
    Access-Challenges (I see certificate is sent from ACS)
    Access-Reject
    CS ACS Failed Attempts Report shows "ACS user unknown" failure for "anonymous".
    So far as I understood, EAP-FAST is a tunneled method and it uses "anonymous" to protect user's identity during phase 0 / phase 1 transactions. The actual username is sent in phase 2 transaction.
    The following is excerpt from the CS ACS documentation:
    "EAP-FAST can protect the username in all EAP-FAST transactions. ACS does not perform user authentication based on a username that is presented in phase one; however, whether the username is protected during phase one depends on the end-user client. If the end-user client does not send the real username in phase one, the username is protected. The Cisco Aironet EAP-FAST client protects the username in phase one by sending FAST_MAC address in place of the username. After phase one of EAP-FAST, all data is encrypted, including username information that is usually sent in clear text."
    SSC 5.0 is indeed set up with "Unprotected Identity Pattern"=anonymous and "Protected Identity Pattern"=[username] using sscManagementUtility.exe
    So, the question is: Why is ACS 4.1 trying to authenticate username "anonymous" if it knows that the user is fake? Does anybody have working configuaration for EAP-FAST in a wired network?
    Any help is greatly appreciated.

    Correct, ACS database wasn't selected on the NAP Authentication page. It works now, but I constantly get the following message in the Windows event log: "The Cisco Secure Services Client service hung on starting". This is Windows 2000 Advanced Server system with SP4. SSC was set up with no domain authentication, no machine authentication, single sign-on. After some time the SSC service starts, but at that time my PC is already put into the guest VLAN by the switch (the tx-period is 10 seconds):
    POD1-SW#sh run int fa1/0/1
    Building configuration...
    Current configuration : 378 bytes
    interface FastEthernet1/0/1
    switchport access vlan 999
    switchport mode access
    dot1x mac-auth-bypass
    dot1x pae authenticator
    dot1x port-control auto
    dot1x timeout reauth-period server
    dot1x timeout tx-period 10
    dot1x reauthentication
    dot1x critical
    dot1x critical recovery action reinitialize
    dot1x guest-vlan 91
    dot1x critical vlan 11
    spanning-tree portfast
    end
    After all the VLAN is reassigned by the switch, but the delay is too high. How can I troubleshoot this?
    Thx.

  • Authentication an admin user on AP1200 with Cisco Secure

    Hello,
    I am trying to configure a Radius authentication for an administrator logging on an AP1200 via HTTP. On the Cisco Secure ACS server I can see that the authentication was successful and with a trace I can see also the 'Radius Pass' answer coming back to the AP1200.
    Unfortunately the administrators gets no access to the AP1200 Web page, and the login windows still ask for username/password. The log of the AP1200 does not give any error message.
    The software versions are following:
    AP1200 version 12.02A (the last one non-IOS available)
    CiscoSecure ACS v2.6 for Windows 2000/NT
    Release 2.6(3) Build 2
    The return packet 'Radius Pass' answer coming back to the AP1200 is the following:
    0000: 00 0b 46 aa a0 e8 00 a0 8e 77 de 75 08 00 45 00 |..F......w.u..E.|
    0010: 00 36 0b 70 00 00 7b 11 8b 0e ac 13 58 fd ac 12 |.6.p..{.....X...|
    0020: f8 15 06 6d 06 fd 00 22 05 f3*02 2b 00 1a 95 ad |...m..."...+....|
    0030: c4 60 e7 21 54 67 2a 60 0e 79 da b1 8f a6 08 06 |.`.!g*`.y......|
    0040: ff ff ff ff |....|
    I suspect that the the last ff ff ff ff (255.255.255.255) shall be equal to the IP address of the AP1200 which was send within the initial Radius request packet.
    Thanks in advance for your answer

    I had a similar problem with the 350 series. I receieved the following information that resolved my issues.
    Using RADIUS, You need to use cisco AV-Pair attribute for admin users with following syntex
    aironet:admin-capability=write+ident+admin+firmware
    Here is the procedure for the admin user you to define the Cisco AV pair Attributes .
    a) On acs select the interface configuration and go to the advance option ,
    selct "per-user Tacacs/ radius attribute " click on submit .
    b)On ACS , Select network configuration ,
    1) check if you have configuration >> Radio ( IOS /PIX available ) on the ACS
    if not add NAS type Radius IOS/PIX , note that this needed for IOS / PIX attribute
    2) After adding IOS/PIX device , select interface configuration >>Radius ( IOS / PIX )
    Enable [026/009/001] "cisco av-pair" option , again make sure that you enable
    at user and group level click on submit

  • Cisco Secure ACS with UCP assistance and enable password

    I am running Cisco Secure ACS version 4.2 running on a
    Standalone Windows 2003 Enterprise 2003with the lastest
    windows service pack and update. Secure ACS is running
    fine and I can authenticate with Cisco routers and
    switches. The Windows 2003 server is also running Microsoft
    IIS Server. In other words, the IIS server and Cisco
    Secure ACS is running on the same windows 2003 server.
    I am trying to get Cisco User-Changeable password to work
    with Cisco Secure ACS. I followed the release notes lines
    by lines and the work around provided below:
    Also server require more privileges for the internal windows user that runs CSusercgi.exe.
    The name of the windows user that runs UCP is IUSR_<machine_name>.
    Workaround steps:
    1) Install UCP 4 on a machine that runs IIS server.
    2) Open IIS manager
    3) Locate Default Web Site
    4) Double click on the virtual name 'securecgi-bin'
    5) Right click on CSusercgi.exe and choose Properties
    6) Choose 'File Security' tab
    7) Choose 'Edit' in 'Authentication and access control' area
    8) Change username from IUSR_<machine_name> to 'Administrator' and enter his
    password (make sure that 'Integrated Windows authentication' is checked)
    I still can NOT get this to work. I got this error:
    It says:
    The page cannot be found
    The page you are looking for might have been removed,
    had its name changed, or is temporarily unavailable.
    HTTP Error 404 - File or directory not found.
    Internet Information Services (IIS)
    I modified everything in the Windows 2003 to be "ALLOWED" by
    EVERYONE. In other words, there are NO security on the windows 2003.
    It is still NOT working.
    The other question I have is that can Cisco UCP allow user
    to change his/her enable password?
    Can someone help? Thanks.

    Yes bastien,
    Thank you.
    But one thing more i want to know that in its Redundant AAA server, when i try to open IIS 6.0 window 2003; it prompts for Username and Password.
    I've given it several time; also going through Administrator account with administrative credentials but it always failed.
    Any suggestions/solution/?
    This time many thanks in advance.
    Regards
