AAA on 2500

jim collins — Sun, 10 Mar 2019 20:44:18 GMT

unable to get tacacs working on a 2500. Tried several different ways to configure it. but I believe I am not doing something correctly between the AAA commands and the vty 0 4 line. It normally looks for a tacacs server (hesitates) but then goes to a password prompt.

aaa new-model

aaa authentication login default tacacs+ line

aaa authentication login LINE line

aaa authentication login NONE none

aaa authentication enable default tacacs+ enable

aaa authorization exec tacacs+ if-authenticated

aaa authorization commands 15 tacacs+ if-authenticated

aaa accounting exec start-stop tacacs+

aaa accounting commands 15 start-stop tacacs+

The information you provided is useful but not enough for us to be able to diagnose your problem. It would be most important to include the part of the config where you configure the tacacs host (and its key - though you probably want to hide the actual key value) and the configuration of the vty lines.

It would also be helpful if you would post the output of the show tacacs command.

It would also be helpful if you could post the output of debug tacacs authentication.

Based on your description of the symptoms (when you attempt to login it hesitates and then gives just the password prompt) I would guess that there is something incorrect in how you have configured the TACACS server. It might be an error in specifying the address of the server, it might be an error in specifying the key for the server, it might be that the server does not have your router configured as a device for which to authenticate.

Check on these and let us know.

I had to wait a few days for the box to be rebooted 🙂 tacacs server key fat fingered.
