IOSXE - RESTCONF authentication failure

[TelesEC]

Hello to all,
I'm starting with RESTCONF and I'm encountering an authentication problem. To validate the configuration I use a local account and then I will use the TACACS+ service.
My configuration is simple and is as follows:

Switch#show run | i http
ip http server
ip http authentication local
ip http secure-server

Switch#show run | s aaa
aaa new-model
aaa group server tacacs+ ENT_GROUP
server name Serv_P
server name Serv_S
aaa authentication login default line
aaa authentication login AAA_SSH local group ENT_GROUP
aaa authentication login AAA_CONSOLE local group ENT_GROUP
aaa authorization console
aaa authorization exec AAA_SSH local group ENT_GROUP
aaa authorization exec AAA_CONSOLE local group ENT_GROUP
aaa authorization commands 15 AAA_SSH local group ENT_GROUP
aaa authorization commands 15 AAA_CONSOLE local group ENT_GROUP
aaa accounting exec AAA_SSH start-stop group ENT_GROUP
aaa accounting exec AAA_CONSOLE start-stop group ENT_GROUP
aaa accounting commands 15 AAA_SSH stop-only group ENT_GROUP
aaa accounting commands 15 AAA_CONSOLE stop-only group ENT_GROUP
aaa session-id common

Switch#show platform software yang-management process
confd : Running
nesd : Running
syncfd : Running
ncsshd : Not Running
dmiauthd : Running
nginx : Running
ndbmand : Running
pubd : Running
gnmib : Not Running

username admin privilege 15 secret 9 XXXYYYZZZ

The error message : %DMI-5-AUTHENTICATION_FAILED: Switch 1 R0/0: dmiauthd: Authentication failure from 192.168.2.1:0 for rest over http.

curl -i -k -X "GET" "https://10.10.10.1/restconf/" -u 'admin:XXXYYYZZZ'

Thank you for your help.

I have not seen you have restconf enabled.

so check show run | in restconf (if that is not show any output)

config t

!

restconf

!

Also, you need authorization, not only authentication, so add the below line and test it.

aaa authorization exec default local

Hello,

Thank you for your reply.
Yes restconf is enabled.
Regarding the AAA configuration, the following lines are not enough ?

aaa authorization exec AAA_CONSOLE local group ENT_GROUP
aaa authorization commands 15 AAA_SSH local group ENT_GROUP
aaa authorization commands 15 AAA_CONSOLE local group ENT_GROUP

aaa authorization exec default local

ip http server
