Configuring AAA
Adding a Server to a Group
To add a AAA server to a group, perform the following steps.
Detailed Steps
Step 1 Choose Configuration > Device Management > Users/AAA > AAA Server Groups, and in the AAA
Server Groups area, click the server group to which you want to add a server.
The row is highlighted in the table.
Step 2 In the Servers in the Selected Group area (lower pane), click Add.
The Add AAA Server Group dialog box appears for the server group.
Step 3 From the Interface Name drop-down list, choose the interface name on which the authentication server
resides.
Step 4 In the Server Name or IP Address field, add either a server name or IP address for the server that you are
adding to the group.
Step 5 In the Timeout field, either add a timeout value or keep the default. The timeout is the duration of time,
in seconds, that the ASA waits for a response from the primary server before sending the request to the
backup server.
Step 6 The other parameters available depend on the server type. See the following sections for parameters that
are unique to each server type:
• RADIUS Server Fields, page 38-14
• TACACS+ Server Fields, page 38-15
• SDI Server Fields, page 38-15
• Windows NT Domain Server Fields, page 38-16
• Kerberos Server Fields, page 38-16
• LDAP Server Fields, page 38-17
• HTTP Form Server Fields, page 38-19
Step 7 Click OK.
The Add AAA Server Group dialog box closes, and the AAA server is added to the AAA server group.
Step 8 In the AAA Server Groups pane, click Apply to save the changes.
The changes are saved to the running configuration.
