As Part of the CCIE Wireless lab we also need to have a CSA Server (besides the CWS server). The actual CSA software (also known as Cisco ACS) can run on a machine with Windows 2003/SP  as underlying Operating system.

I am currently using a Virtual Machine that runs Windows 2003/SP2 with all latest security patches.

The settings for the Virtual Host that I have used can be find below in the picture.

Once this is done you are ready to play arround with this and see what the possibillities are.

When we open a browser and go to the following web page http://localhost:2002 you will have access to the management GUI of ACS.

When we try to open this page from another machine we first need to create a administrator user before we can access the management GUI from another machine!
