Note

If you do not change the value of the Aging time (hours) box to
something other than zero, all EAP-TLS and Microsoft PEAP users
whose computers perform machine authentication are assigned to the
group specified in the “Group map for successful user authentication
without machine authentication” list.

Tip

To clear the cache of Calling-Station-Id values, type 0 in the Aging time (hours)
box and click Submit.

Group map for successful user authentication without machine
authentication
—This list specifies the group profile that Cisco Secure ACS
applies to a user accessing the network from a computer that has not passed
machine authentication for longer than the number of hours specified in the
Aging time (hours) box. To deny such users any access to the network, select
<No Access> (which is the default setting).

Note

User profile settings always override group profile settings. If a user
profile grants an authorization that is denied by the group specified in
the “Group map for successful user authentication without machine
authentication” list, Cisco Secure ACS grants the authorization.
