topic Hi, in Network Security

ASDM read-only access hang loading configuration

rosarra — Tue, 12 Mar 2019 07:09:28 GMT

Hello

I tried to configure the ASDM access using the ACS Tacacs+ (v4.2) for a monitoring-only access (level 3) and read-only access (level 5). Everything works fine for monitoring access (the ASDM management interface correctly display only Home and Monitoring tab) while the read only access seems to hang during the configuration parsing phase.

In read only access when the ASDM tool start, the information banner is correctly displayed confirming that the user is not allowed to modify the ASA configuration.

Later an "Enter Network Password" window is displayed and also inserting the correct read only account information this windows is proposed continuously for about 15 time.

When the network password banner disappear, clicking the Configuration button the parsing running configuration progress bar appears but the process hangs after 77%.

Here follows the sw specification:

ASA 5516X

ASA vers. 9.4(1)

ASDM vers, 7.5(2)

Java vers. 8.66

Hi Rishabh,

thank you for your answer

After your replay I checked the ACS configuration looking at the privilege cmd list in Shell Command Authorization Set.

In effect I forgot to include "more" command in the shell list and after the correction the read-only access is working fine.

Thank you for you help,

Roberto
