Configuring Remote Agents (ACS Solution Engine Only)
The Add Remote Agent page appears.
Step 3 In the Remote Agent Name box, type a name for the remote agent (up to 32 characters).
Step 4 In the Remote Agent IP Address box, type the IP address of the computer that runs the remote agent.
Step 5 In the Port box, type the number of the TCP port on which the remote agent listens for communication
from ACS (up to 6 digits). The default TCP port is 2003.
Note If this port number does not match the port on which the remote agent is configured to listen,
ACS cannot communicate with the remote agent. For information about configuring the port
number on which the remote agent listens, see the Installation and Configuration Guide for
Cisco Secure ACS Remote Agents Release 4.1.
Step 6 From the Network Device Group list, select the NDG to which this remote agent belongs.
Note The Network Device Group list appears only if NDGs are enabled. To enable NDGs, click
Interface Configuration > Advanced Options, and then click Network Device Groups.
Step 7 To save your changes and immediately apply them, click Submit + Apply.
Tip To save your changes and apply them later, click Submit. When you are ready to implement the
changes, click System Configuration > Service Control, and then click Restart.
Note Restarting the service clears the Logged-in User report and temporarily interrupts all ACS
services. The Max Sessions counter is reset to 0.

remote logging and Windows authentication configurations that use the remote agent.
Before You Begin
For descriptions of the options available while editing a remote agent configuration, see Remote Agent
Configuration Options, page 3-19.
Note For ACS to communicate with a remote agent, you must ensure that gateway devices between a
remote agent and ACS permit communication over the TCP ports used by remote agents. For
information about ports used by remote agents, see the Installation and Configuration Guide for
Cisco Secure ACS Remote Agents Release 4.1.
