If a section of the Cisco Secure ACS HTML interface appears to be "missing"
or "broken" return to the Interface Configuration section and confirm that the
particular section has been activated.
Before you begin to configure the Cisco Secure ACS HTML interface for your
particular configuration, it is helpful to understand a few basic precepts of the
system's operation. The information in the following sections is necessary for
effective interface configuration.
A user can belong to only one group at a time. As long as there are no conflicting
attributes, users inherit group settings.
If a user profile has an attribute configured differently from the same attribute
in the group profile, the user setting always overrides the group setting.
If a user has a unique configuration requirement, you can make that user a part of
a group and set unique requirements on the User Setup page, or you can assign
that user to his or her own group.
You can configure most features at both group and user levels, with the following
exceptions:
User level only—Static IP address, password, and expiration
•
• Group level only—Password aging and time-of-day/day-of-week
