Nexus Configurations

[Darren Shaw]

Hello David,

Thanks for the syntax. Sadly this still does not work. The free radius server will authenticate me as a user but the 5K wants me as an operator and not admin.

If you have the 5K working, could I be cheeky and ask if you could mail me the radius config on your 5K

thanks

This is what I'm adding to the replies for Nexus 5K's. I don't have any 7K's but I'd be surprised if
they were any different. I have not tried to send two roles so I can't confirm the syntax for that.

        Cisco-AVPair += "shell:roles=network-admin",
        Service-Type := Administrative-User,
