ACS to authenticate against an ODBC-compliant relational database does not
affect the configuration of the relational database. To manage your relational
database, refer to your relational database documentation.
Note As with all other external databases supported by Cisco Secure ACS, the
ODBC-compliant relational database is not supplied as part of Cisco Secure ACS.
For general guidance with setting up your ODBC external user database, see
Preparing to Authenticate Users with an ODBC-Compliant Relational Database,
page 13-59
.
The Windows ODBC feature enables you to create a data source name (DSN),
which specifies the database and other important parameters necessary for
communicating with the database. Among the parameters you provide are the
username and password required for the ODBC driver to gain access to your
ODBC-compliant relational database.
