MDS custom role

Hello

We have issue with MDS role when we use custom roles.

Example of problem: The question mark is working on "Predefined group" example network-admin. But not on custom role in MDS NX-OS 5.2.

As a reference everything works prefect on Nexus 5k nx-os 5.1. with the same user and aaa (ACS/tacacs) server.

!

MDS9513-7# show role name san-1

Role: san-1

  Description: Admin Role

  Vsan policy: permit (default)

  -------------------------------------------------

  Rule    Type    Command-type    Feature        

  -------------------------------------------------

  1       permit  clear           *              

  2       permit  config          *              

  3       permit  debug           *              

  4       permit  exec            *              

  5       permit  show            *              

MDS9513-7# show role name network-admin

Role: network-admin

  Description: Predefined Network Admin group. This role cannot be modified.

MDS9513-7# sh user-a

  end        Go to exec mode

  exit       Exit from command interpreter

MDS9513-7# sh ver | inc 5.2

Cisco please release "The complete guide to MDS/NX-OS RBAC/Role".   ;-)

We manage to find some DCNM "hidden" role to perform some task when use custom role.

Hi Christer,

CSCub93429 is fixed in NX-OS 5.2(8b) and above.

CSCub93429

Symptom: On Cisco MDS 9000 Family switches, CLI help (?) does not list all the available commands, keywords, and arguments for a user. Also, the tab key command completion does not work.

Condition: This issue occurs only for users with role-based access control (RBAC)-based privileges that access the switch through the CLI.

Regards,

David
