Using CiscoSecureACS with CiscoWorks-RME

I need help in configuring CiscoWorks to use CiscoSecureACS for login authentication. I have specified TACACS+ as the login module. I am able to login with a account from the ACS server. However, the permissions aren't configured correctly. When I login with the ACS server account, options aren't displayed (e.g., under RME, Administration, Inventory, Add Devices...the Add Device option isn't present). Please advise.

To be succinct, ACS doesn't have all the fields that are required by Ciscoworks. That is why you still need to define the user profiles in ACS.
ACS is simply an authenticator. Ciscoworks still handles authorization. Look at the fields available in Ciscoworks and you'll see there are a number of roles that each user can take. I suppose Cisco may someday include extensions in ACS to handle the specific CiscoWorks profile fields but that isn't the case today.
I think the advantage to using ACS is the centralized authentication. Users don't have to change their passwords in multiple places. Logon violations are recorded in one place.
You'll find that once you define the profiles in CiscoWorks they will remain quite static.

  • Which versions of Window can perform best with CiscoWorks?

    Hi,
    Please advice that currently we have 3200 logical devices configured on CiscoWorks and CiscoWorks is running very very slow. CiscoWorks installed on server with Windows Server 2003 32-bit and this version of windows it can only support RAM up to 4GB, which is already installed. In order to increase the RAM we have to upgrade the windows version as well.
    Please advise that which versions of Window can perform best with CiscoWorks.  E.g. Windows Server 2003 with Service Pack 1 (SP1), Standard Edition 64-bit: or Windows server 2008 etc. Please advise us the full windows release version as we will upgrade windows as per your suggestion.
    We are currently using the LMS 3.2, RME 4.3.0, CM 5.2.1

    Please refer to the Installation Guide for Windows server requirements. Here is the link:
    http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/net_mgmt/ciscoworks_lan_management_solution/3.2/install/guide1/prereq.html#wp1099303
    Given that you want to stay with Windows Server, Server 2008 Standard Edition with service Pack 2 would be your best choice.
    NOTE that your should not (and cannot) use Server 2008 R2. That version in only supported with LMS 4.0.1. LMS 3.2 will not work with Server 2008 R2.
    With a 64-bit OS, you can increase your RAM - which is usually constraining system performance on systems with 32-bit OS. I recommend just putting in 16 MB. Why skimp on $100 RAM with $20,000 software?
    Your other alternative is to divide the server roles across several machines. That is a pretty complex task so I'd do the OS and RAM upgrade first and see how that helps you out.
    Re "Linux" LMS 3.2 (and 4.0/4.0.1) is only supported on Windows and Solaris operating systems. Plus if you're not a Uniux admin, the learning curve can be steep for your first dip in the water.

  • CiscoWorks RME 4.3 syslog forwarding

    Hello,
    We are running CiscoWorks RME 4.3 and forwarding syslog messages to another syslog server. To forward messages we use script from https://supportforums.cisco.com/docs/DOC-11592
    All is working great at the begining of month. With growing of syslog.log file, forwarded messages are delayed more and more. Because of Syslog Analyzer monthly reports we have log rotate at every 1st day of month.
    So question:
    Is it possible to write syslogs to two different files? One which will rotate as described above, and other which will be used by syslog_forward.pl and rotated every day?
    Thanks in advance!
    Regards!
    Marko

    You cannot do this on Windows with the LMS syslog server.  All messages will be written to one file.  Logrot in LMS can archive the log files instead of just rotating them.  This way, you can keep messages as long as you want.  Just specify a non-zero number of backups when configuring Log Rotation.  The archived files will be created with a numeric extension (e.g. syslog.log.1, syslog.log.2, etc.).  Those files can be further archived manually to long-term storage.

  • Ciscoworks RME 4.0 SNMP Config Change

    Hi,
    I was locked out one of my routers.  I cannot access it via Telnet, SSH, TFTP, SCP, etc.  However, I remembered once I reconfigured the router via SNMP community string.  Does anyone know how I can change router config via SNMP community string using CiscoWorks RME 4.0?
    Thanks!

    You can use RME ---> Config Mgmt --> NetConfig --> NetConfig Jobs . For specific steps, read the users guide below for information about different user defined task you can use.

    As  Winston Churchill wrote, however you might want to do a factory reset on the Apple TV.
    This way all information pertaining to your daughter will be removed from the device. Specifically if see was sign into any of the streaming service, Netflix, Hulu, etc. her credentials will still be associated with this Apple TV, doing  a factory reset will remove all that and make it as if you purchased the device and just plugged it in.

  • I ordered my Macbook Air with Aperture two years ago. I now have an iMac - can I use that with Aperture in any way?

    I ordered my Macbook Air with Aperture two years ago. I now have an iMac - can I use that with Aperture in any way? I appreciate that it is a different computer but I am now the end user of both devices and I was just wondering if it was possible.
    Thanks,
    Sean

    The answer would be in your software license agreement for Aperture. However if you cannot locate it you can ask in the Aperture forum, the link for that is:
    https://discussions.apple.com/community/professional_applications/aperture
    However I believe you can have Aperture installed on two machines however only one may be using it at a time.
    On the new iMac launch the Mac App Store - Purchased - look for Aperture and download to your new machine.

  • How do I use user_datastore with a feeder proc to add an mdata section?

    Hi,
    I have text data spread across a number of different tables. I have created a user_datastore with a feeder procedure that creates an xml document which is then indexed into a dummy column on the parent table. This works fine. However I need to add an mdata section to the index, via my xml document. I haven't seen any examples of this being done in conjunction with the ctxsys.auto_section_group option of the create index statement, and am wondering if it is possible?
    Could somebody furnish me an example of how I achieve this.
    Oracle 11.2.
    Thanks
    Ralph

    You can't use MDATA with AUTO_SECTION_GROUP. AUTO means it automatically assigns zone sections for every tag it finds - if you want anything other than zone sections you must use BASIC_SECTION_GROUP, XML_SECTION_GROUP or HTML_SECTION_GROUP and manually define your sections.

  • Using Excel with Visual C++ 6.0 (need a graph control that behaves as much like the one in CVI as possible)

    I hate to beat this to death but I was unable to find a
    clear answer to this question.  Does NI provide Excel control from within
    Visual C++ 6.0? 
    I read that NI supports the ANSI-C library only for Visual C++ 6.0 users:
    Thread : "Re: Benifits of using measurment
    studio for VC++ 6.0?"
    NI REP : drohacek
    Quote  : "we made the decision to support Visual
    C++ 6.0 users only through the ANSI-C interface and not through the Measurement
    Studio MFC-based class libraries."
    If there is a suggested way of controlling Excel from within Measurement Studio
    for Visual C++ 6.0 then I’d love to know it. 
    If not, can a plain statement be made basically stating that if you want
    to control Excel you can’t use a Visual C++ 6.0 environment even with Measurement
    Studio support?
    With .NET of course you can just decide to have Excel support added during
    project creation.  CVI can act as an ActiveX server and easily control
    Excel just by building off the examples shipped with CVI.  I see that
    there is support, using the Measurement Studio for Visual C++ 6.0 Project Wizard,
    for taking existing CVI projects and converting them to Visual C++ 6.0 projects
    or for calling CVI libraries from a .dll from within Visual C++ 6.0.  I suppose I could do the work
    in CVI and then convert the project but I'm so deeply tied into all my MFC calls that I don't see
    how I can cleanly include the CVI libraries into my existing VC++ 6.0 projects.
    What I'm really after here is a visual graph control like the one in CVI that I
    can use from Visual C++ 6.0.  I purchased a 3rd party graph control for use
    in VC++ 6.0 that works well but isn't really visual.  I mean you can't
    enter any values in it until you run the program and fill it out programmatically. 
    Then you can see which columns are two narrow, quit the program, adjust the
    column width of your now empty control, and repeat, until you get the thing
    looking the way you want.  If I could call into Excel from within Visual
    C++ 6.0  the way I do from within .NET
    then I could use Excel to hold the table and just read in the values into my table
    control at run time.  Basically I'd use Excel as a visual development tool
    for all my tables.
    I do all my coding from within CVI and Measurement Studio for Visual C++
    6.0.  I'd use CVI for everything if I didn't depend so heavily on certain
    outside controlled C++ .dll's.  Could you please suggest then what I can
    do to get Excel support for Visual C++ 6.0?
    Last question :
    Is there any plan to ever have a NI table control like the CVI table control for
    use in Visual Studio?  One that you can
    completely set up before you do any compiling? 
    I imagine that the way Microsoft sets up their environment makes this idea impossible.  Otherwise someone would
    have come up with a truly “visual” table control before now.
    Thanks,

    Hello Grant
    You can most certainly use Excel with VC++ 6.0. Measurement Studio won't provided you with any classes to talk to Excel in VC++ 6.0. This is because Excel allows control via Automation and you can use its automation API to do anything you need with Excel. This is what CVI uses as well.
    You can see this MSDN article on how to set this up. This mentions VC.NET, but it should work the same way.
    Here is one that talks about VC 6.0 and Excel.
    Here is a code project article about this.
    Even with .NET, you have to do thru the Excel Automation support. Excel started shipping with Primary Interop Assemblies (PIA) which are .NET wrappers about the Excel Automation object model. C++ Automation is definetely not as nice as .NET, BTW
    See this document for more information about the Excel object model.
    I would not recommend using the CVI Excel libraries if all you want to use them for is Excel automation. You will end up creating un-necessary dependencies and go through extra layers that way. You can make calls straight to Excel from VC++ without requiring CVI.
    One quick observation about your excel approach. If you decide to use Excel as your table, you might be requiring everyone who uses your application to have Excel installed on their machines. Just wanted to make sure this was acceptable to you.
    Have you looked at the Datagrid Activex control, which is one of the common controls that ships with Visual Studio? You can add it to Visual Studio by right-clicking and picking it from the list of installed activex control. If you have not already, you should check it out.
    Microsoft has made significant improvements in the number of controls they provide with .NET. They have a Datagrid control that seems to be what you need.
    Measurement Studio did add some high level classes for Excel and Word Automation that simplify some common tasks, but these exists for VS 2003 C++ and VS 2005 C++, not for VC 6.0. Underneath, we end up using the same Excel automation classes, so you can easily setup something similar for VC 6.0. Plus you can find alot of references online on how to use the Excel Automation object model with C++.
    We currently have no plans in Measurement Studio to create a table control unfortunately. I am assuming when you said graph, you actually meant table, since Measurement Studio already  provides a ActiveX graph controls for VC++ 6.0 that is very similar to the CVI graph.
    On a side note, VC++ 6.0 is really really old. Have you considered upgrading?
    To summarize
    - Yes, you can use Excel with Vc++ 6.0 without mstudio.
    - Try using the Datagrid Activex control if you just need a table.
    - Measurement Studio provides high-level excel and word classes for VC++ 6.0
    - Measurement Studio provides a graph control for VC++ 6.0 which is very similar to the CVI graph.
    - Measuremnt Studio does not have a table control.
    - VC++ 6.0 is really really old. Have you considered upgrading?

    Please send some code samples also if available.
    Thanks in advance.

    using sort option you can do it. in case of grid/oo alv class ALV you can view that only in print mode/preview mode.
    in case of list you can view that directly.
    sort-fieldname = 'FIELDNAME'.
    sort-group = '*'  "triggers new page
    sort-up = 'X'.
    append sort to it_sort.
