Configure ACS for authentication internal Users
December 22nd, 2009
From the ACS GUI, complete these steps:
- In the navigation bar, click External User Databases.
- On the External User Databases page, click Database Configuration.
The ACS displays a list of all possible external user database types. - Click Windows Database.
If no Windows database configuration exists, the Database Configuration Creation table appears. Otherwise, the External User Database Configuration page appears. - Click Configure.
The Windows User Database Configuration page appears with several options. - Configure the required options. All the settings on the Windows User Database Configuration page are optional and do not need to be enabled unless you want to permit and configure the specific features that they support.
- Submit in order to finish this configuration.
Now we need create user account in ACS and in the field password authentication set “Windows Database”. However it is not best variant especially if we have a lot of user accounts in AD. In this case we have to set what will do ACS if user do not exist in internal database.
