Configuration examples

Console Access Server (CAS) profile
With the ACS console server set up as a CAS profile, you may access a connected server's serial
console port from a workstation on the network. There is no authentication by default, but the
system may be configured for an authentication server such as Radius, LDAP or a local database.
Figure 4.1 displays an example of a CAS environment. This configuration example has local
authentication and serially connected workstations.
