Cisco Secure ACS Active Service Management
ACS Active Service Management is an application-specific service monitoring
tool that is tightly integrated with ACS. The two features that compose ACS
Active Service Management are described in this section.
This section contains the following topics:
• System Monitoring, page 8-18
• Event Logging, page 8-20
System Monitoring
Cisco Secure ACS system monitoring enables you to determine how often
Cisco Secure ACS tests its authentication and accounting processes, and to
determine what automated actions it takes should tests detect a failure of these
processes. Cisco Secure ACS accomplishes system monitoring with the CSMon
service. For more information about the CSMon service, see CSMon, page G-4.
