ACS 5.3.40.1 bulk edit problem with some WCS attributes

[Dominic Stalder (old profile)]

Hi there

I just wanted to import the WCS TACACS+ SuperUsers attributes on ACS 5.3.40.1 via the new bulk edit feature. If I trye the following attributes and click submit, my admin user is logged out of the web GUI and the changes are not saved:

task13=View Alerts and Events

task15=Delete and Clear Alerts

task16=Pick and Unpick Alerts

task17=Ack and Unack Alerts

Seems to be a bug. Does anybody confirm this?

Best regards

Dominic

This issue is not specific to the new bulk edit feature and can happen when adding entries from the GUI

Issue relates to use of "alert" in TACACS+ custom attributes.

There is a CDETS open that is being evaluated for a ACS 5.3 patch

CSCtx18638 Cannot add custom shell attribute with keyword alert

Patch 5.3.0.40.3 is now available for download on CCO and includes a fix for

CSCtx18638 Cannot add custom shell attribute with keyword alert

This is also an issue in 5.2.0.26.9

This is correct. There is also a patch 10 under test for 5.2 that will include this fix that is tentatively scheduled to be released next week

Thanks. I was getting close to putting 5.2 (upgrade from 4.2) into production but will wait.

BTW, patch 10 for ASC 5.2 that has a fix for this issue is now available for download on CCO

I have installed and I can now enter the rest of the values. Thanks.
