bphillips15

Level 1

Does the Cisco IOS AAA Authentication that would essentially block logins against the local database if TACACS or RADIUS is reachable also apply to Cisco NXOS? 

 

IOS: aaa authentication login default group tacacs+ local

 

NXOS: aaa authentication login default group acs local

Nexus same like IOS :

 

you need to enable feature before configure as below :

 

feature tacacs+

 

AAA config : ( change the parameter as per your requiremetn)

 

tacacs-server host  IPOFTACACS  key 7 YOURKEY

 

aaa group server tacacs+ BBANDI
aaa authentication login default group BBANDI
aaa authorization commands default group BBANDI local
aaa accounting default group BBANDI

 

There is good flow diagram to understand for referenece :
