ExtremeSwitching (EXOS)

Dears, 

i need a solution to configure an authentication server on an extreme switch BD-8806

Here is my script , it not working and i keep getting authentication denied when i tried login in to the switch 

TACACS+ CONFIGURATION
# This is the key that clients have to use to access Tacacs+

key = test123

###THIS WAS MEANT TO WORK FOR EXTREME NODE###
user = stef {
member = admingroup
login = cleartext extreme
service = Extreme-XMC-Auth {
local-user-name = remote-su

 }
}

SWITCH CONFIGURATION

configure tacacs primary server 10.17.21.196 49 client-ip 10.10.8.5 vr VR-Default
configure tacacs primary shared-secret encrypted "test123"
enable tacacs
enable tacacs-authorization


Above are my script , i need a solution that works

Hi,

When you use the "encrypted" keyword it is expecting an encrypted string that it needs to decrypt. 

Can you change it to this?

configure tacacs primary shared-secret test123​

EXOS always encrypts credentials so it will show in the configuration like this:

configure tacacs primary shared-secret encrypted "#$bb+3R99U8zhsAGv7ZykeGacBRVU9nA=="​

Thanks,
