Authentication Inactivity
When ACS evaluates this threshold, it examines the RADIUS or TACACS+ authentications that occurred
during the time interval that you have specified up to the previous 31 days. If no authentications have
occurred during the specified time interval, an alarm is triggered.
You can specify filters to generate an alarm if no authentications are seen for a particular ACS instance
or device IP address during the specified time interval.
If the time interval that you have specified in the authentication inactivity threshold is lesser than that of
the time taken to complete an aggregation job, which is concurrently running, then this alarm is
suppressed.
