DSView 3 Software Plug-in for the ACS Advanced Console Server : Configuring the ACS Console Server : Configuring authentication

Configuring authentication
Using the ACS console server plug-in, you can configure two of the centralized authentication types available: the DSView 3 management software or the Radius authentication server.
DSView 3 management software configuration
To enable centralized authentication in the DSView 3 software, first select one of the three DSView 3 software authentication types: DSView, DSView/Local or DSViewDownLocal. When the DSView 3 software centralized authentication service is configured, the DSView 3 server is used to authenticate users accessing the ACS console server.
To select a DSView 3 software authentication type:
Click Appliance Settings - Authentication Type in the side navigation bar.
Click Flash Required to save your changes to the ACS console server Flash memory.
You may use the Appliance Authentication Servers - DSView page to configure up to four DSView 3 software authentication servers for the DSView, DSViewLocal or DSViewDownLocal authentication methods.
NOTE: To configure IPv6 addresses, the ACS console server must have firmware version 3.2.0 or later.
To configure DSView 3 software authentication servers:
Click Appliance Settings - Authentication Servers - DSView in the side navigation bar.
Click Flash Required to save your changes to the ACS console server Flash memory.
Radius authentication server configuration
The ACS console server also supports the Radius authentication server. You may use the Appliance Authentication Servers - Radius page to configure up to four Radius authentication servers (up to two Radius authentication servers and up to two Radius accounting servers).
To configure Radius authentication servers:
Click Appliance Settings - Authentication Servers - Radius in the side navigation bar.
Enter the IPv4 or IPv6 addresses of up to four Radius authentication servers on your network (up to two authentication servers and up to two accounting servers).
Select the Enable Service-Type attribute checking checkbox to authorize the ACS console server to retrieve the level of the user (admin or regular) based on the Service-Type attribute from the Radius server.
Click Save.
