Chapter 6 Managing Policy Objects
Understanding AAA Server and Server Group Objects
Step 5 Select the protocol to be used by the servers in the group.
Step 6 Enter the names of the AAA server policy objects that define the AAA servers to include in the group.
Click Select to select the objects from a list filtered by the protocol you selected. You can also create
new AAA server objects from the selection list. Separate multiple objects with commas.
Step 7 Configure the additional options that you want:
• Make this Group the Default AAA Server Group—For IOS devices only, whether you are using this
group as the default group. Use this option if you intend to have a single global server group for this
protocol for all policies requiring AAA. For more information, see Default AAA Server Groups and
IOS Devices, page 6-28.
• ASA 8.4(2+) devices—If you are creating a RADIUS group containing Active Directory agent
servers, select AD Agent Mode. This option indicates that the servers in the group are not
full-function RADIUS servers but instead provide AD agent functions for identity-aware firewall.
Use this group in the Identity Options policy.
• ASA, PIX, FWSM devices—Select options for how to handle AAA servers that stop responding,
and for how to send accounting messages. For more information, see AAA Server Group Dialog
Box, page 6-46.
Step 8 (Optional) Under Category, select a category to help you identify this object in the Objects table. See
Using Category Objects, page 6-12.
Step 9 (Optional) Select Allow Value Override per Device to allow the properties of this object to be redefined
on individual devices. See Allowing a Policy Object to Be Overridden, page 6-18.
Step 10 Click OK to save the object.
AAA Server Group Dialog Box
Use the AAA Server Group dialog box to create, copy, and edit AAA server groups. When defining a
policy that uses a AAA server for authentication, authorization, or accounting, you select the server by
selecting the server group to which the server belongs.
Navigation Path
Select Manage > Policy Objects, then select AAA Server Groups from the Object Type Selector.
Right-click inside the work area and select New Object or right-click a row and select Edit Object.
