How to control command on Nexus switch with ACS based on priv level

Hi,

We want to allow some ReadOnly users to do show running command with nexus switch but not allow them to still make any change configuration. It seems RO users can put some commands but they can't put show run command yet. Following snapshots are our setups regarding ReadOnly access policy on ACS. 

How can we make this work?

NX-OS uses Roles to assign privileges, so you would need to use either the network-operator or vdc-operator role, or create a custom role.

See an example in the Cisco ISE Device Administration Prescriptive Deployment Guide

More information on RBAC can be found here (assuming Nexus 9000):

Do I have to create manually user account on the switch? How can the NX-OS RBAC work with existing control access server(ACS in our case)?
