Restarting Cisco Secure ACS-related Windows services should be done 
during off hours because it briefly interrupts authentication, 
authorization, and accounting.
Advanced Options
The Advanced Options page enables you to determine which advanced features 
Cisco Secure ACS displays. You can simplify the pages displayed in other areas 
of the Cisco Secure ACS HTML interface by hiding advanced features that you 
do not use.
Caution Disabling an advanced feature in the Interface Configuration section does not 
affect anything except the display of that feature in the HTML interface. Settings 
made while an advanced feature was displayed remain in effect when that 
advanced feature is no longer displayed. Further, the interface displays any 
advanced feature that has non-default settings, even if you have configured that 
advanced feature to be hidden. If you later disable the feature or delete its settings, 
Cisco Secure ACS hides the advanced feature. The only exception is the Network 
Device Groups feature. Regardless of whether Network Device Groups are in use, 
they are hidden when deselected on the Advanced Options page.
The advanced option features include the following:
•Per-User TACACS+/RADIUS Attributes—When selected, this feature 
enables TACACS+/RADIUS attributes to be set at a per-user level, in addition 
to being set at the group level.
•User-Level Shared Network Access Restrictions—When selected, this 
feature enables the Shared Profile Component network access restrictions 
(NARs) options on the User Setup page. These options allow you to apply 
previously configured, named, IP-based and CLID/DNIS-based NARs at the 
user level. For information on defining a NAR, or NAR set, within Shared 
Profile Components, see Adding a Shared Network Access Restriction, 
page 5-19.
