Deleting Network Devices

To delete a network device:

Step 1 Choose Network Resources > Network Devices and AAA Clients.

The Network Devices page appears, with a list of your configured network devices.

Step 2 Check one or more check boxes next to the network devices you want to delete.

Step 3 Click Delete.

The following message appears:

Are you sure you want to delete the selected item/items?

Step 4 Click OK.

The Network Devices page appears, without the deleted network devices listed. The network device is removed from the device repository.

Configuring a Default Network Device

While processing requests, ACS searches the network device repository for a network device whose IP address matches the IP address presented in the request. If the search does not yield a match, ACS uses the default network device definition for RADIUS or TACACS+ requests.

The default network device defines the shared secret to be used and also provides NDG definitions for RADIUS or TACACS+ requests that use the default network device definition.
