Hello,

I don't understand why I'm seeing a set of errors whenever an admin logs into a Nexus 9k switch (login/role association works properly). Here's an example from a single login:

I'm not certain if this is being caused by our AAA configuration, but I haven't found anything that would indicate why I'm seeing this issue.
