Question about usage of aaa accounting commands

snakayama — Sun, 10 Mar 2019 22:01:06 GMT

Hi everyone,

I have the problem that Cisco routers and switches do not send some accounting command

information to ACS.

Accounting commands do not send to ACS are "show log" and "show version".

Accounting commands send to ACS are "show runn", "conf t" and "debug"

The configuration of routers and switches is the following

----------

aaa new-model

aaa authentication login default group tacacs+ line

aaa authorization commands 15 default group tacacs+ none

aaa accounting exec default start-stop group tacacs+

aaa accounting commands 15 default start-stop group tacacs+

tacacs-server host xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx key yyyy

----------

I think the commands do not send to ACS are privilege level 1 command and the commands

send to ACS are privilege level 15 command.

So I need to additional aaa accounting command below to get routers and switches send level 1

command to ACS, because the "15" of "aaa accounting commands 15" does not include level 1

so need to configure "aaa accounting commands 1" for level 1 commands.

aaa accounting commands 1 default start-stop group tacacs+

Is my understanding correct ?

Your information would be greatly appreciated.

Best regards,

Hi,

What you mentioned is correct.

Since you did not have level 1 command accounting enabled "show log" etc did not get sent to the ACS.

Adding level 1 accounting would solve the problem.
