To add and configure a AAA server, follow these steps:
Step 1 In the navigation bar, click Network Configuration.
The Network Configuration page opens.
Step 2 Do one of the following:
• If you are using NDGs, click the name of the NDG to which the AAA server
is to be assigned. Then, click Add Entry below the [name] AAA Servers
table.
• To add a AAA server when you have not enabled NDGs, below the AAA
Servers table, click Add Entry.
The Add AAA Server page appears.
Step 3 In the AAA Server Name box, type a name for the remote AAA server (up to 32
characters).
Step 4 In the AAA Server IP Address box, type the IP address assigned to the remote
AAA server.
Step 5 In the Key box, type the shared secret that the remote AAA server and the
Cisco Secure ACS use to encrypt the data (up to 32 characters).
Note The key is case sensitive. If the shared secret does not match,
Cisco Secure ACS discards all packets from the remote AAA server.
Step 6 From the Network Device Group list, select the NDG to which this AAA server
belongs.
Note To enable NDGs, click Interface Configuration, click Advanced
Options, and then click Network Device Groups.
Step 7 To enable watchdog packets, select the Log Update/Watchdog Packets from
this remote AAA Server check box.
Step 8 From the AAA Server Type list, select the AAA server type applicable to the
remote AAA server. If the remote AAA server is another Cisco Secure ACS,
identify it as such by selecting CiscoSecure ACS.
