Re: OT:manage routers with TACACS+ server

Hi Jeff,

We are using TACACS+ as well and do have differing levels of access. The
differing levels of access in our environment are provided by the
"privilege exec level command" at the device. For example:

privilege exec level 10 traceroute <- allows use of extended
traceroute
privilege exec level 10 ping <- allows use of extended ping
privilege exec level 10 show startup-config <- allows viewing of
startup-config, but not running

Once configured on the router (or any NAS), you can give the group the
privilege level you wish them to have. I did find a link regarding the
"privilege" commands that may help you as well:

http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/software/ios120/12cgcr/secur_r/
srprt5/srpass.htm

Hopefully that helps you out a bit.

Regards,
Chris

Hi,all
   My company has over 100 routers,and I found it is very diffcult to
manage the routers' password with vty password and enable password. I don't

know how experts do it.I am tring to do it with cisco TACACS+ server(ver
2.3),but I met a problem.
   I have definded two groups of routers, one is HQ routers and the other
is BRANCH routers. And our company has two groups of administrators too,one

is HQ administrator ,the other is BRANCH administrator. My aim is to permit

HQ administrtor can access the two groups routers with privilege 15,and
BRANCH administrator can access BRANCH routers with privilege 15,HQ routers

with privilege 10.It seem there are no such item in TACACS+ server. can
TACACS+ server do what I want?
   I have searched the CCO,but found nothing about it.any help will be
appreciated.

   Jeff
