Cisco CiscoSecure ACS for UNIX Upgrade to v2.3 CSU-2.3-UG Manual De Usuario

To support CiscoSecure database requirements, you can use either the supplied SQLAnywhere database
engine or supported versions of your own preinstalled Oracle Enterprise or Sybase Enterprise software
running on your network.

Supported database engines include:

The supplied SQLAnywhere database—Does not require preinstallation on the network; but be
aware of the limitations of the SQLAnywhere database option:

Does not support networks of more than 5,000 users

Does not support database replication

Does not support the CiscoSecure Distributed Session Manager (DSM) feature (which requires
CiscoSecure database replication setup)

If your network requires these support features, Cisco recommends preinstalling the Oracle
Enterprise or Sybase Enterprise database engine.

Oracle Enterprise version 7.3.2, 7.3.3, 7.3.4, or 8.0.x. (Version 7.33 or higher is required for
database replication and DSM support. Version 7.3.4 requires two scripts to be run for replication.
See the User Guide for more information)—Requires preinstallation and configuration. It must be
running during CiscoSecure ACS installation. See “Setting Up an Oracle Database for
CiscoSecure,” page xix, for instructions on configuring this software to support CiscoSecure ACS.

If you intend to set up CiscoSecure with Oracle database replication, Cisco recommends that
you read the PDF document Using CiscoSecure with Oracle’s Distributed Database Feature
(filename csbsdoc.pdf) before you install the Oracle or CiscoSecure software. This
document is located in the $BASEDIR/FastAdmin/docs directory of the CiscoSecure
distribution CD-ROM. It provides an easy-to-understand, start-to-finish, screen-by-screen
configuration example of setting up Oracle database replication to work with CiscoSecure.

Sybase Enterprise version 11.0.2 or higher—Requires preinstallation and configuration. It must be
running during the CiscoSecure installation. See “Setting Up a Sybase Enterprise SQL Server for
CiscoSecure,” page xxii for instructions on configuring this software to support the
CiscoSecure ACS.

If you are supporting token servers, they must be installed on the network before you install
CiscoSecure ACS. Supported token servers include:

CRYPTOCard

Secure Computing

Security Dynamics, Inc.

If you are upgrading from a previous version of CiscoSecure 2.x, see “Upgrading from CiscoSecure ACS
2.x to 2.3,” page xiv for instructions on using your old software license key.
