Nexus TACACS Authentication

Frank

I am trying to get my Nexus 5K to authenticate with ACS Express.

Looking at the Nexus 5K troubleshooting doc it looks like you need to specify special AV Pairs in ACS (which I do not think you can do in ACS Express)

Is this supported?

Thanks

Frank

Hi Frank,

ACS express doesn't support role-based authentication (RBAC) that is needed to assignproper roles to nxos-based devices like the Nexus switches

HTH,

Alex
