CSMon is a service provided as a part of Cisco Secure ACS that facilitates 
minimum down time in a remote access network environment. CSMon performs 
four basic activities:

Monitoring—Monitors the overall status of Cisco Secure ACS and the 
system on which it is running

Recording—Records and reports all exceptions to a special log file

Notification—Alerts the administrator to potential problems and real events 
regarding Cisco Secure ACS and records all such problems

Response—Attempts to automatically and intelligently fix detected 
problems

CSMon works for both TACACS+ and RADIUS and automatically detects which 
protocols are in use.

CSMon is not intended as a replacement for system, network, or application 
management applications but is provided as an application-specific utility that 
can be used with other, more generic system management tools.
