Understanding My Workspace
The Cisco Secure ACS web interface is designed to be viewed using Microsoft Internet Explorer 7.x,
8.x, and 9.x and Mozilla Firefox 3.x and 4.x. The web interface not only makes viewing and
administering ACS possible, but it also allows you to monitor and report on any event in the network.
These reports track connection activity, show which users are currently logged in, list the failed
authentication and authorization attempts, and so on.
The My Workspace drawer contains:
• Welcome Page, page 5-1
• Task Guides, page 5-2
• My Account Page, page 5-2
• Using the Web Interface, page 5-3
• Importing and Exporting ACS Objects through the Web Interface, page 5-18
• Common Errors, page 5-25
• Accessibility, page 5-27
Welcome Page
The Welcome page appears when you start ACS, and provides shortcuts to common ACS tasks, and links
to information.
You can return to the Welcome page at any time during your ACS session. To return to this page, choose
My Workspace > Welcome.
