CFS Nexus 3048 TACACS+

[Steven Williams]

I am working with Nexus 3048's running NX-OS 6.0 code. I cant seem to figure out how to get TACACS config to distribute like NTP or syslog.

ntp distribute works, after looking at the doc for NX-OS it says to use "tacacs+ distribute" the command tacacs+ doesn't exist.

Anyone have anything on this?

Looks the commands are hidden however I was able to still configure them on a 3048.

3048-BF3# show tacacs+ status

distribution : disabled

session ongoing: no 

session db: does not exist

merge protocol status: 

last operation: none

last operation status: none

3048-BF3# conf t

Enter configuration commands, one per line.  End with CNTL/Z.

3048-BF3(config)# tacacs+ distribute

3048-BF3(config)# end

3048-BF3# show tacacs+ status

distribution : enabled

session ongoing: no 

session db: does not exist

merge protocol status: not yet initiated after enable

last operation: enable

last operation status: success

But after completing these steps it appears that the config from the primary for tacacs does not replicate to the secondary peer. Might be a platform version issue as this working in the 7k platform.
