{{ edit_field(admin_console_form.inventory_history_per_host, label_field_width="col-sm-8", field_width="col-sm-3", class="form-control") }} {{ edit_field(admin_console_form.install_history_per_host, label_field_width="col-sm-8", field_width="col-sm-3", class="form-control") }} {{ edit_field(admin_console_form.download_history_per_user, label_field_width="col-sm-8", field_width="col-sm-3", class="form-control") }} {{ edit_field(admin_console_form.total_system_logs, label_field_width="col-sm-8", field_width="col-sm-3", class="form-control") }}

LDAP Authentication

If enabled, the designated LDAP Server will be used for CSM Server user login authentication. An example of an LDAP Server URL is ldaps://ds.cisco.com:636.
{{ edit_field(admin_console_form.ldap_server_url, label_field_width="col-sm-4", field_width="col-sm-7", class="form-control") }} {{ edit_field(admin_console_form.ldap_default_user_privilege, label_field_width="col-sm-4", field_width="col-sm-7", class="form-control") }}
To restrict access to certain user group, define the Active Directory Distinguished Names below. An example may be

CN={},OU=Employees,OU=Cisco Users,DC=cisco,DC=com

'{}' is a placeholder string and will be replaced with the user login name.

{{ edit_field(admin_console_form.ldap_server_distinguished_names, label_field_width="col-sm-4", field_width="col-sm-7", class="form-control", placeholder="Optional") }}

Host Authentication

If enabled, the default host username and password will be used for device authentication.

{{ edit_field(admin_console_form.default_host_username, autocomplete="off", label_field_width="col-sm-6", field_width="col-sm-6", class="form-control") }} {{ edit_field(admin_console_form.default_host_password, autocomplete="off", label_field_width="col-sm-6", field_width="col-sm-6", class="form-control", placeholder=admin_console_form.default_host_password_placeholder) }}

Apply the Default Host Authentication to:

{{ admin_console_form.default_host_authentication_choice }}

If enabled, CSM Server User Credential will be used for device authentication during software installation. This will not affect the daily host inventory retrieval. It will still use the defined host username and password unless the Default Host Authentication is enabled, in such case, the default host username and password will be used.

CCO Connection

If CCO connection is disabled
  • The ability to view DDTS information will be disabled.
  • The ability to download software will be disabled.
  • A request to retrieve software information will cause CSM Server to retrieve previously saved software information from the database instead of from CCO. To refresh the database with up-to-date information, click the Retrieve Software information button.

Time Zone Setting (UTC vs Local Time Zone)

By default, local time zone is used on CSM Server UI. If Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) is selected, all time information will be displayed in UTC time zone.
