NAP and NAR as you've configured on ACS 4.x can be configured on ACS 5.x but in a different section. This cannot be migrated as it is but yes can be configured.

What is the end goal? Are you planning to integrate WLC with radius for wireless authentication or WLC with tacacs for WLC gui administration. As of now, I'm adding both the doc:

That depends on your licencing, you may need to get "Large Deployment" add on licence.

Thanks
